Paint colours

[JC]

As it seems quite a few people are getting into this converting and building lark I thought it might be an idea to have a colour reference topic, maybe it will help a few of us along with getting a close match colour off the shelf for a particular brand.

If you've used a particular "off the shelf" colour to match up to a particular brand and you don't mind sharing it with others then please post it up here.

hi any body a suggestion for overum blue and silver 

[Barry]

Found this which has just helped me out, there is a colour bar on the right that you move left and right to the right colour, then up and down for the shade of the colour, click and it suggests the nearest available colours.  I found the colour name, then checked the availability from Halfords!!!!
