    Hi, I've found a PPG colour which I'm interested in for a respray on a non lambo. Will most paint shops be able to obtain or mix this colour if I gave them the PPG code?

    Cheers
    Rob

    That's not guaranteed, I think you need an original well-preserved sample to be sure of accuracy.

    As you remember, 1988+ Lamborghini PPG paints were waterbased. So that adds a certain shade to the color too. Just try to match the one you like, there is a biiig number of things that can alter the final color, like primer color, lacquer and so on.
