Anyone know a website where I can key in a paint code and see a chip/swatch of that colour.

I appreciate that computer displays won't show any colour accurately but it'd give me a rough idea.

Thanks y'all.

Paintref ?
Tried that. They can't find the one I was looking for.

I was ordering a 250ml can of BMW Nardo Grey. Planning on painting an old panel to see what I think of it and on the checkout page the website showed a "you might also be interested in. . ." Advert for BMW Blue Grey Metallic FQ95-2968

Well. I thought. I might be interested if I knew what it looked like.

So. Anyone know what it looks looks like? Lots of people sell it but can't find a chip/swatch 🤷

I know I've bored people rigid with my Fiji Green but... I'm stunned at how close TriStarColor matched the original paint.. and goes on really easy...gets delivered from Germany...

Might not be quite what you asked, this is slightly off-topic, but interesting/ helpful for future ~ https://individual.bmw-m.com/colors

If you click on a colour, e.g. nardo, it takes you to a sample patch, click on that and you can see it on a car
