...Mazda 3 ? I have found that here in Canada , in Canadian Tire, the spray can of “Dupli-Color, Pefect Match” in the Honda Color “MILANO RED” is almost exactly the same shade and tint, so I’m using that and it gives a great job for small scratches, but I wonder if anyone has found something a bit better?
I have been to Mazda dealerships and they sell only a small touch-up pen, but I find that is not as close as a match as the Honda’s MILANO RED from the spray can.
I was even told to go to a local “Sherwin Williams” Automotive branch, and that they could mix me up a can of the required paint for only $36. I went there and they told me that there is a pigment in the top coat and I would have to buy 2 cans, at more than $70. I said “no thanks”, and I went to Canadian tire and bought a $12 can of Honda red instead, its close enough.
Has anyone else had trouble matching the “Velocity Red Mica” as I have been having?
The exact body color code is "27A"
