Any one know if there is a supplier of PPG paint in the UK. I'm looking for some quality F8 dark metallic green. Don't want the normal mixed up poor quality stuff?

I didn't realise PPG bought Brown Bros when Unipart collapsed.

I used NEXA AUTO COLOUR supplier for the metallic EF8 2k solvent paint. The colour and finish spot on. This and the MaxMeyer hs clear lacuer. I got this from CCS mawney road Romford, specialist paint supplies for classics. I did speak to Brown Bros. Chelmsford , but included a song and dance regarding using 2K solvent paint. They wanted me to use water base.! It seems to me upon doing some delving PPG own or licence most paint in the uk. after using NEXA I would certainly recommend it.
