Best bet is to buy all your paint at one time and as been said box the paint if you have more than one gallon . Use the same base color primer . I did my truck over the course of the summer and I can see variations in the color most people don’t but I do .

All good advice. We just did a refresh on my boss and friends 67 Chevelle Malibu at the shop, it is Ferrari red. He painted it well over 20 years ago. The PPG Deltron left in the can that was used for the repairs provided an awesome result on the repairs. My 8K paint job on the 94 (done by others) already has clear coming off just after 5 years. Reason I chose SS Deltron PPG concept for my 72. Did the painting at our shop on the 72.

What color is it ? did I miss that? the short answer is it could and will vary due to temp and humidity changes. Some colors are def gonna show this more than others. Good luck happy sanding. Jim
