don't bother mate, you'll never get a colour match with cans.

i agree. the finnish will be rubbish, plus you never get 2 cans which are an exact colour match.

You can get the colour match if you have the can specially formulated at a paint supplying motor factors, it will be pretty expensive per can tho, about £12.
However the finsih will be really quite poor and pretty dirty, unless you a dab hand at paint rectification  .
