    Hello,
    I ordered a paint like the original on the car, at least it was supposed to be but after applying it is lighter, in the spray it is much lighter and in the container only a little, it can be darkened somehow so that the color of the painted elements more or less equals the original paint?
    It's just that the paintwork is wrong for me or what could be the problem?
    I tried a part of the wheel arches and I do not know whether to continue painting or order a different varnish or are there any dimmers?

    You can adjust the color with the pressure on the reducer.

    If you paint from a can, you won't do anything, you can only combine it with some inventions for dimming headlights.

    But the paint on the car is yellow, it may not work out well: /

    I thought that after applying it would be a bit darker and some clearcoat or something similar would not darken it?

    If you add less thinner, it will be darker, but the air pressure must also be adjusted.

    Interesting spray paints are now selling, immediately with a pressure regulator and the possibility of adding a thinner.

    You probably took the varnish by number. And you had to show the fuel filler flap. Unfortunately, the paint is getting old and in a summer car the difference will be, if not now, in some time. It's also a matter of shade and branding.

    It was the varnish that was chosen after the flap

    Most mixers, if not all, have a slogan that reads:
    ,, without a test spraying, complaints will not be considered ,,
    Before the actual coating, a test spray should be made on the control strip and on its basis, the accuracy of the shade of the selected paint should be assessed.

    The method of applying it also affects the shade of the varnish.

    And you know why the shade in the spray is much lighter than the shade from the container because here and here it is the same and the difference is big?

    You have a thick layer of paint in the container and hence a different color, spray, you apply a thin layer and the shade will always be different.

    There is also the issue of painting, the most common mistake of those who for the first time is applying masking tape and painting to the edge of the tape, then even a perfectly selected varnish will come out without any problems.
    The second thing is the issue of spray versus gun, if it is acrylic, then the gun is a much better option - we buy varnish, thinner and hardener and the varnish is the same as the factory one, in the spray you only have varnish + a lot of thinner (you can ask them to add hardener to the spray, but then you have a certain time, quite short for paint consumption.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the challenge of matching the color of a newly applied car paint to the original shade, which appears lighter than expected. Suggestions include adding black paint to the container to darken the color, adjusting the pressure on the reducer, and modifying the thinner ratio to achieve a darker shade. Users note that the method of application affects the final color, with thicker layers in the container resulting in different shades compared to thinner sprays. The importance of conducting a test spray before final application is emphasized, as well as the potential issues with aging paint and color discrepancies due to different application techniques.
