Bloody paint......

Armed with Micks paint code for the dash I went down to my paint shop and no go... because it is an interior colour they had the code but not the formula. So plenty of running around and I finally found out Motorama have a paint and refinish shop... success... they have the formula on file .... Oh no... they don't have enough staff on Saturday to mix the paint for me... I was the only person at the counter the whole time so that's a strange one.. now I have to go down during the week to get the paint mixed.

Thought I'd take the formula back to my paint shop..... no good.... different brand of paint and the formula tint codes mean nothing to them...

and people wonder why getting their parts restored costs so much... 20% is the actual material cost and 80% is the "getting f**ked around factor"...
