I'm a big fan of those custom mixed spray bombs for doing touch ups on my old cars. They spray so well and after a wet sand and polishing, you can't tell where you painted. I have some mixed for my Laurentian and went to Carquest in London to have some mixed for my 58 Dodge as I have a couple of lower fender rust blisters to fix. They do custom mixing here in Ingersoll, however the can I had mixed using the factory paint code was lighter than what was on the car (it had been painted years ago and likely has faded slightly due to age). Luckily there is one location in London that can scan an original part and mix to match. I took the fuel filler door from my Dodge with me and they mixed up a perfect match. Now the bad news: Since water based paint is now the law, they can only mix the old style paint until the end of the year. If you want it for your car, you should do it sooner than later as they won't be ordering new stock so you may not be able to get your shade mixed if you wait until the end of the year. They can't make spray bombs with the new water based paint.
The current paint also works great for stone chips. I spray a bit in an empty spray bomb lid and use a fine brush to fill in the chip. It works great.
