Inferno Orange spray paint

Doing some painting under the hood and found the White local for ($7.95) just fine but can't find Dupli-color in Inferno Orange.

Only place my searches led me wanted 19.95 + 8.00 shipping and it wasn't Dupli-color... was wondering if someone on here had found a better source for Inferno orange spray paint.

Check with your local NAPA. They can sell you quarts, or, put it in a rattle can.

I have checked the NAPA stores they said that they can not put paints in spray cans. I have RJT Camaro and it not sold in auto parts stores.

automotivetouchup.com is where I get mine. And yes, its roughly $20 a can. Its a bit much.. but it's a dead on match for OEM paint. To me, the price is worth knowing my custom work will be indestinquishable from factory parts.

When someone looks at your Ride.. and says: "It looks great, but what did you do?".. that means it was a job well done.

+2 for automotivetouchup.com. I bought a spray can of Ashen Gray Metallic and it matches perfectly.

Okay, must be regional. The Chicago-area stores do it. I gave them my paint code and they did the rest.

It seems to be store to store... the one I went to can't do it, but the one in the next town does, but they weren't sure if the did metallic paints. So I still have to call them.

For the posters that said automotivetouchup.com paint matched not in my case. I have Red Jewel Tricoat Camaro. I ordered spray paint from them it was like night and day. I know Red Jewel Tricoat is very hard to color match. They not the only place that sells RJT spray paint I have spent over $200. tring to find RJT to match but have not found any one yet. When I worked for GM assy RJT was sprayed first with the red base then it was sprayed with a clear tinted with red.
