Paint Question

Thinking about repainting my side skirts and touch up on a few spots on the car.


What automotive store color matches your paint and puts it in cans for you?
I heard the paint at Crappy Tire is very thin so you'd have to apply alot of coats.


Also anybody know about pricing for them to match the paint and put it in spray cans for you?

depends on the colour hes painting.

light colour - light primer.

dark colour - dark primer.

you can also tint your primer the same colour as your going to paint it.
