Matching this metallic paint took three tries and a week

I was ready to pull my hair out by the end.

Yeah, I used to think matching paint was no big deal until I tried metallic. How does it take three tries and still not look right? This kind of stuff makes you appreciate the pros, doesn't it? I guess it's all about the light and angle with that finish.

Three tries and it still looks off? Man, @cameronjenkins, that's rough but I have to ask. Is it really worth that much stress? Most people will never look that close at a wall or a car panel. Sometimes good enough actually is good enough, you know? Pros are great but I wonder if we make these projects harder on ourselves than needed.

My friend had the same issue with metallic paint, @cameronjenkins.
