I recently had the rear wheel arches tidied as the lip was looking a bit rust patchy. The paint shop ( I have used before-no problems at all) said that now they have to use a water based paint as the solvent thinners type paint is no longer available. They had real problems in getting a match and in certain light it looks wrong, in other light , OK.
Car is a 1998 vintage, Subaru silver.
Are they correct in what they say about the paint or not ? They have always matched in the past ( larger bonnet scoop for example ).

Well new legislation means that everyone should be going waterborne although 2 pack is still avaliable as i believe commercial vehicles are still using it iirc

 

blackwrx is right 2 pac is still available but only in certain colours now as tried to get some for by birds clio cup but no joy had to be water based which is a nitemare to use and takes alot longer to dry so i dont think u could get the paint for ure scoob in 2pac
