Touch up Paint
Hey Guys...
I bought some touch up paint from the local dealer...color code 10 - Artic White and after using it...the pigment is waaaaaaay off!!!!!
Has anyone had a similar experience with GM touch up?
Are there any other sources that would provide a better color match?
Thanks as always!

white spray-can paint has always been a prblem IMO. I've seen it in other non-automotive applications as well. I once talked to a mfgrs rep about this at a trade show. He said the propellent and something else inside the can may darken "white" a shade or two. The longer the spray can sits ont he shelf after mfgr'd... the more effect the chemicals have on the pigment.
