Has anyone ever found a good substitute paint code (auto body paint code?) instead of buying the expensive duplicolor deep purplish blue metallic spray cans? Almost $40 by the time I pay for shipping for 1 can....I was also looking at a touch-up brush in ford, gmc, etc...see lots of blues but not exactly sure what color is a good match.........
I got this out of the tech section hope it helps. I had the local paint place do a color match worked out great and could use the cheaper shop line paint instead of the name brand PPG

I bought both colors for $10 at Murray's Auto located in lower Michigan. Make sure you shake the color before using. Both colors are real close. By: viper7mi

The new Dupli-Colors come in a cool scratch and fix 2 in 1 pen type dispenser on top with a brush inside. The pen part fills in small spots great.
