Question V-Red Spray Paint?

I found this site (https://www.paintscratch.com/cgi-bin/place_order2.cgi) for touchup paint where you can order V-Red spary paint - 12.5oz for $50. Sounds a bit expensive. Has anyone tried this product, or have you found any others?

What are you wanting to spray paint? And yes, $50 sounds pretty steep to me.

sounds like alot to me too...
there are some Automotive paint shops that sell you colour match paint... what you'll have to do is give them a sample of your paint colour i.e. your gas cap and they have a machine that that can copy the colour... im sure its more technicle than that but thats the just of it. i used to work at a little body shop and we used to get it done all the time... for a lot less than $50

I used that paint and it is exact match if you are careful with the middle coat(the flakes). For $50 you will receive 3 cans- base, middle and clear. Don't order flex in the clear if you don't have to. It needs a lot of rubbing to get it shine. I have painted the eyelids, the strakes and the body kit for my 8 and matches very well.
