The paint was a tad too dark, so I added some pure metallic to lighten it a bit. I got a few ounces of the pure metallic from the place I buy my paint.
I once went to Sherwin Williams factory automotive paint school. We spent two whole days on color match. Kinda fascinating. It was a hands on school with a paint gun in our hand half the time. The instructors had a half dozen fenders, some metallic, some non. They had painted the fenders with the original color shifted off just a bit, and we students had to figure out what the instructors had done and mix paint to bring it back to the original color.
If a color doesn't match, you have to ask yourself, is it too yellow? Is it too red? Is it too blue? I still have a chart from that school telling what to add to make a particular change.
