"Excellent as usual! Ordering by paint kit is a great addition, less thinking involved ;) and I'm sure the results will be as good as they have been in the past. Thanks again!"

"Just wanted to say thank you. I took my time painting it and it looks great! A very close match. That mid-coat can be tricky to apply! Thanks again!"
