Halfords Touch Up Paint

Oddly enough I had thought could I spray enough into the top of the spray can...but had thought probably not. But with you mentioning also I am more encouraged to give it a go. Thank you NC

What's M3-500 when it's at home? Halfords used to be my go to for model making and helmet spraying etc when not using an airbrush as the can tops were close enough an approximation (although not as good as their original painted tops) but this new system that takes a manufacturers actual paint code and anonymises it is useless. If you managed to work out from their book what it actually translates to as a real colour you can usually just order it off eBay easily enough as either a 500ml can of paint that's far superior to the more recent Halfords stuff, or in a touch up stick using the same paint but un-thinned.
