   you'll never get a perfect match with rattle cans. as body work has been in sun so is faded and rattle cans are a match to new paint supposidly. every posi blue i brought has never matched

   the area your painting if you sand it back enough you should see what primer you need it will either be red or black.
   
   red will make the mettalic come out, black will give it a more depth look and will be slightly duller.
