Matrix Is good paint like some others said it is a clone of PPG, even the toners for the mixing system hafe the same identical can numbers and names of each toner if you like PPG you'll like Matrix

Dont use Matrix if you're trying to color match anything they suck as far as that goes. Even if you were to try to repaint a bumper later on down the road that was rock chiped or whatnot it will never match to the rest of the body color

I wont use anything but Matrix anymore i love the shit and have had no matching problems except when i got some of the cheaper standard basecoat. I use the Autoglas European clear and that shit is badass. We've got a system coming so itll all be in house including the FX line
