Default Handy hint - paint

Hi Folks, I had a bit of a nightmare finding some paint that was a really good match for RAl 9010 pure white - this is the colour Saturn use for their white GRP - I guess others use it too. Anyways, best deal I could find on an aerosol of RAL 9010 was about £12 plus post. I then discovered that Halfords Gloss appliance white is a perfect match. Only costs 7 quid for 500ml of the stuff too.
Hope that helps somebody.
Enoch.
