Just an update to the above. Finally had some dry weather this month.Just an update to this. I managed to get paint from Tailored Paints on Amazon delivered last Thursday.
I used a UK registration number to get the colour matched. Cost was eur 25 all in, including delivery and customs (no prime delivery on these).
Paint seems to be correct but weather was so bad this weekend and my car is so filthy after driving back roads all week that I'm going to have to wait until next weekend to try it out.
The paint comes in two bottles, undercoat and top coat and includes a few applicators and gloves in the set.
Hopefully next weekend is dryer.
Paint was a disaster, it's way too runny and dries up on the brush too fast. It doesn't adhere easily too metal either. Just taking the lid off results in large pools of paint to drop out as well.
I did manage to get some touch up done using the tip of a tooth pick to put the paint on by dipping the pick into some of the paint pools on a card I held the bottle over when opening. It doesn't look great but at least something is over the metal. I think this paint is only suitable maybe for large areas of damage and on plastic parts like the bumpers. Stone chips definitely not.
I'm going to complain to the seller.
