Does anyone know of any rattlecan paints that closely match L539 Baltic Blue and L620 Savanna Beige? I just repaired a few small spots on my Squareback and a respray isn't in the budget yet.

This is going to be your best bet:

Custom mixed touch- up in a spray can.

Otherwise, there's a whole thread dedicated to "close" colors in a spray can, but no exact matches to your two.

check a local auto paint and body supply. they will color match and most can put it in a spray can

That's probably the way I have to go, the $30 a can is frightening though!

Try buying it by the pint. It's only about 80 bucks each plus reducer. :shock:

Doing it right isn't so frightening. :wink:
