Agreed. This is what I mix at work. Some colors will have different color variants for example paint code TS for Ford has Prime, Angle lighter, bluer face/darker angle, these are all the same silver color but if you have the chips side by side you can see a big difference. I've also sent out some gas doors to PPG for the colors that suck like Ice blue ans they are a dead on match.
