Default Recommended paint rattle cans

Hi need a tin of paint, primer and top coat to touch up a couple of bits on the car. So are there any online sellers that are recommended?
Thanks

Have purchased a touch up kit from https://www.paints4u.com/ in the past, they were recommended to me at the time.


Very recently touch up from ebay store of https://xtremeautoaccessories.co.uk.

Had these when I had sills repaired. Perfect match. They just need your paint code.

If you are near a Halfords get one of their body shop primers.
Comes in 3 colours,white,grey and black and is much better than normal primer.
Dries rock hard and doesn't chip off.
I used it on my wheels a couple of years ago and the finish is still good.

I have used the MG Rover paint from Rimmers and the match was perfect (easy to blend in). Maybe more expensive, for small cans but depends how much you have to do.
