Preferred brands of Nitro

As I have been camped out in Spain this year and trying to get better at finishing guitars
I picked up Nitrolack finishes which are based in Spain and part of a big paint company. 
As much as I am on the learning curve some of their colours seems just plain wrong for Fender although they say they are carefully matched to originals Dupont etc colours. I had a particular issue with their Sonic Blue which yes comes out to me exactly like their picture but not like a Fender picture or how I see sonic blue it just looks wrong and it takes a lot of coats to get to that. Not all of their colours are bad but the pigmented ones seem a bit wrong. I also used their faded sonic blue and that's just pretty much white and a hint of blue in the right light. I am using their white or clear primer the sonic blue was done on a white base coat. 

So if anyone has a preferred Nitro supplier they would like to recommend as much as the demo strat body is now on its 6 or 7th refinish same as the Tele I still have not been happy. Don't mind if they are UK based I can get stuff shipped out without to much trouble. 

Thanks





I want it to look like the Fender Sonic Blue in this picture

I won't be exporting after mid December though. There'll be too many new rules and regulations next year to make it worth my while unfortunately.

@SteveRobinson ;
Well the export is fine I can get stuff sent to my UK office and those guys will do the paperwork when we get to that stage do you do tins or just the rattle cans could only see the aerosols on the website. 

thanks

I only do aerosols sorry, I don't have the space to stock tins as well, especially as they'd be slower moving.
