We told them what colour said ford ice White said was not ford ice white so got machine out said was van white bit I've now been told they should then brought the colour out on strip to double check and they never. So we got call last night after he sprayed it saying it's not same but he had to finish it. Where pingu so so white he said this white he spayed looks cheese hence why chalk and cheese.

Teng tools and Snap-on are both superb, Halfords Professional are good too. I've never bought a kit, mine are just built up from years of mine and my dad's collection.
