I've been ordering my basecoat online with success. My issue is that it takes awhile to get. I shopped around many suppliers locally and got pricing anywhere from $60 a quart to $270 a quart.
This place I ordered from does motobase lv and valspar low VOC basecoat. I wanted the paint in motobase but they said the paint codes J7 and UX don't exist in motobase? Only in valspar which makes no sense because these are common Ford colors...
The place is about an hour from me in a really bad area so I had them ship me the paint. I got it today and I noticed it looked off just looking at mixing stick. I had a scrap part laying around that I taped in 1/2 to see the color and it's off by alot.
It's significantly darker and greener...The paint I've ordered in past has always been really close. This is first time I ever had something off like this. Is this considered normal? The other color I ordered appears darker also.. I paid $135 for both colors in quart shipped...
Should I eat the cost or should I complain to them? Here is a picture. The color on the right side is dead on accurate. I think it was Matrix paint from the other supplier.
