Are they the Irish based company? If so yes they’re very good - I have loads of paint from them including liquid yellow and been good.

This is where I find out how much my 17 year old paint has faded

Well I've done it, its come out a little orange peely so I'll leave it 24hrs then cautiously wet sand it with p2000 and hope I've got enough depth of lacquer to get a flat finish

I've not compared it in daylight yet but I think it will be a bit darker what with 17 years of fading on my car. Anything will look better than it being black gold.

Doesnt look far off actually, I'll get it flatted back and polished before I fit it then get some photos up

Darker but only in some lights, I can live with it for £14.99 and my time

The color match is pretty spot on with that isn't it!
I'm happy which is all that matters to me, being a central part a slight colour mismatch is less important than if it was a wing etc I think

That looks amazing for a spray job!
I think it was the amount of lacquer and time I spent flatting it back before hitting it with my DA.
If you saw how dusty my workshop is youd be surprised how none of it got in th finish

Looks decent!

A bit late but for anyone else looking in future, Autopaint st helens also do decent paint a bit cheaper.
