Looking to color code a few parts but halfords vauxhall black doesnt marry up and it patchs/runs like water, its awful

Anywhere else that does Vauxhall Black II in spray tins?

You sure thats not just your painting skills? Paint will only run if you put too much on.

Indeed, I colour coded my arches on my carabic blue corsa with halfords tins, came out spot on.

Your best bet is to find a local dedicated paint supplier in your area and get them to mix you up a few cans from a direct color match. That way it'll be as close as possible and you'll be getting reasonable quality paint (although it maybe a lil more expensive).
