    Hi,
    I need to spray some panels on my car mostly on the interior.
    Does anyone know somewhere that mixes paint and puts it into aerosols
    cans.I don't have a compressor so it would be very handy just to use a aerosol, and the colour is not one that they have in the auto factors ready made up.
    Any help would be great
    Cheers

    Vincent Byrne on Mt. Pleasant Ave. Rathmines will match a colour and put it in an aerosol for you. Suggestion would be to bring in your fuel cap or towing eye cover or some easily removable body coloured part.

    Thanks for the replies,
    My car was resprayed before I bought it and it turns out that it's not a
    standard car colour so I thought if somewhere could mix it for me and put it in an aerosol it would be handy.the problem was getting somewhere to match it.
