in some paint shops you can ask them to make you a spray paint. just need the right color code. but pearl white. i think pearl paints need 3 diferent layers... 1 was maybe silver or something what goes 1st, 2nd was the paint and 3rd gloss. or maybe even 4 layers, cant remember. wanted in 1st place paint my car whit green pearl, bud did not find the right color. | |

| I am a parts guy for a living. Just take the paint code off your door into a shop like napa,B2B, Partsource, etc. they can either take the code and mix you a pint and then put it into spray bombs, or there is a company called sherwin williams that they can order directly from who mixes for them.
Typical prices for pearls are much higher because of the variables needed to make them so be expecting somewhere around $25-$30 per spray bomb and probably $60 or more for a pint. Most places won't mix it for you if its less than a pint, but hey it never hurts to have a lil extra for touch ups down the road.
Good luck hope this helps. | |

| When I got my hood repainted by my Ex's father who runs a body shop, I only had to buy paint. A pint of the base, plus a pint of the pearl coat, and a pint of clear coat was $250. This was from PPG chemicals. | |
