anthracite 205110 colour match question?

[ADY 554D]

has anyone had any 205110 paint mixed at halfords?
i had some mixed last week but it looked almost black in the cup and the guy mixing it knew what it was for and even he said it looked to dark?
needless to say i never took it but i still need some so i was wondering if any one else has had any mixed and what was the match like once sprayed?

cheers ady

I got some made up in halfords for my dash strips, seems fine.

go to the autopaint website. they're in st helens, ive had it a few times from there and the colour is pretty good, its not much for delivery either.

I think the colour in the cup isn't a true representation of what the colour will actually look like when sprayed/laquered. Plus they'll be differences in light etc.

If he's mixed it up with the correct quantities it should be the same.
I guess the best thing you can do is try it on a different surface before using it for what you want?
