Default Rantin' about Paintin'

Gday Phil,

I know its probably been said before but I'm particularly enjoying this thread as its very informative and I'm learning a bit....so thankyou..

Fantastic colour chart youve posted. My frustration with colours for the trucks is many....if I vent a little here its not directed at you or anyone else for that matter...just searching for a solution.

If I print this colour chart and show it to blokes who mix paint, its still not going to come out exact.

If I get an original sample of paint and a paint guy matches it........its still not going to come out exact.

You and I order the same colour, from the same paint manufacturer, made the same way, the same type (two pack, enamel, whatever) in two seperate batches.......its still not exact.

Solutions??? Or is that just how it is and its like the changing of the tides....have to leave it be.
