Paint

I need half a litre of paint for touching up the cosmetic imperfections on
my 1988 90 hardtop.

It's either Marine Blue or Shire Blue. Anybody know where I can get the
stuff?

I've got Shire Blue tekaloid paint from these guys before on the
recommendation of Stephen Hull and they were very friendly:

However, that might be pretty expensive for half a litre and if your 90
is anything like the others from that era the colour is no longer shire
blue

example 1989 shire blue:

example tekaloid shire blue:

So probably best to get a local auto paint mixer chaps (ask at your
local motor factors who can do it) to take a look at samples and find
what matches the closest.
