Hi all! First post since joining, found answers to most of my questions with the search function.
Where can I get a small amount of Island Blue Metallic? Duplicolor doesn't make it, they refered me to another company but it's too pricey for what I want to do.
What I want to do is make a flamed front license plate using the blue as background and Arizona beige for the flames to match the color scheme on my truck. Do any of the other blues in the Duplicolor line come close?

 

You might try www.paintscratch.com .

G'luck and welcome to f150online.com!

 

That's the place Duplicolor sent me to. $25 +S&H for a 12oz can. They don't have the Island Blue anyway.

 

Well then good luck to ya sir. Sorry to have bothered you with an attempt at helping you.

 

Sorry you took my reply wrong, I had forgotten what the website was Duplicolor sent to me until I opened you link.

 

Tis okay... it's easy to misinterpret text on a screen... just sounded as though you were tossing it back at me (without any form of gratitude might I add).

Try a quick google for "island blue ford paint touch up"... I got a bunch of hits.

 

Thanks for the links, I'll check 'em out.

 

Try www.autopaintdirect.com They sell mixed spray cans for $13.95 plus shipping.

I bought a couple of cans of spray paint for my truck and Jeep from Levine's in New Jersey a couple of years ago that Dupli Color did not carry or I would have to buy a case of it to get the color I wanted. I cannot find their website now.

If you could buy a pint of paint. I saw a spray can that you add the paint to and uses a canned propellant in O'Reilly's last weekend. It was about $7.00 for the sprayer. You could buy refill propellant cans for five or six bucks.

 

Google / Search is a wonderful thing

 

Also try expresspaint.com. They have some of the harder to find colors such as some of fords three stage paints. Some of these are expensive, but I have used them, and they match perfect. Good luck.
