Where to get a custom spray can of matching paint?

Hey, Anyone know of somewhere, preferably in Dublin area that can make an spray can of matching paint from a sample? I need to do some small patch and paint works on some components I'm working on during a car restoration. Thanks

Vinny bynres are very good. Especially if its an old car or odd ball paint code. Vinny also have all the panel wipes, tack and flatting materials you will need.

Remember spray cans can deliver very uneven pressures so I find lots of thin coats with flatting between them usually works.

Halfords also do it but can (no pun) be a bit patchy

IIRC, price wise they are roughly the same.
