I need to use rattlecan paint once in a while for small things. The one I've used, http://www.automotivetouchup.com/, doesn't match well (3L2 red). I've also looked at the thread where purplegt4 painted his skirts and that paint (from paintscratch.com) didn't seem a perfect match either, but I don't know if that car was faded.

Does anyone have a source of paint that matches well?

Well, I haven't heard of these "alternates" before, but I can tell you that paint I bought in quarts at the local paint store (for spray gun use) DID match perfectly without any tinkering. Nor did they ask for anything more than the code.

They DID ask me for the year and model (and the on-line suppliers did also), so I assume that all 96 Celicas were painted the same color red. Are you saying this is not true?
