paint supply

i have read that there is a company you send the code of the paint on the side door and get them to match your color. i believe you can buy it in cans if memory serves me right.

i have done a search but can't find the post, does anyone know what i'm talking about.

some cars have the code on the door i don't know about ours but i do know that honda uses a year and color name to keep there paints. The hard part is finding witch paint company makes it in a can.

does our car a tri color process. meaning a base coat, mid color, and clear coat.

now to me i gues the base is like a primier, the mid is the paint, and the last is the clear coat.

no, honda's cheap and uses a single stage paint job on our cars.

this means primer, base coat, clear coat.
