It is not so much a case of stocking the actual colour, but making it using the paint mixing system they have. Pop in to an auto paint supplier and
they will be able to show you some colour charts and you can pick a purple you like, and then they will advise on how much matting agent they will
need to put in to bring the gloss down.
