my fd is montego blue, labelled at a site as Montego Blue Pearl Clearcoat, color code M8/2A. i'd like to knwo if anyone knows what the most accurate touch up paint out there is. something that matches up better than other brands. i'm sure theres a difference between brands.

It's hard to match it perfectly...hence touchup (coverup)...but the CYM paint i got from here was 2 shades lighter than the car itself.

 

in most cases where it's factory clear coated, you have to clear coat the touch up paint for it to match properly. u can just clean the chip out, put 2-3 layers of touch up, a layer or 2 of clearcoat, wet sand, and use touch up magic which levels off the bump left over, then do a medium cut, and final smooth cut of the whole car and after a good waxing you'll never know the touch up spots existed...
