I've always used red primer, and got a good match.. Out of a tin though.

Mate works in a bodyshop, says they would use a grey primer if I remember rightly, but thint the primer or something.

True, although a place near me sells it, sign above the door saying "Solvent paint for industiral use only" ie, buidings etc, give the guy color code, he mixes, on your way, no questions asked
