Hi there az3579,
I know it was some time ago, but when you sprayed your silver cube trim, was the paint you used regular Duplicolor Precision Grey or the 'Perfect Match' range of paints?
I think the Perfect Match contains a lacquer mix.
Looking to do the same so wanted to be sure of the paint, so it closely matches oem color
Thanks

It was a duplicolor Nissan precision grey metallic. It's slightly darker and closer to silvergrey which is what I liked. Silvercube comes in two colors. A darker grey or titanium silver.

This might be misleading should someone happen upon this post someday.

Correct. Silver cube effect trim and Black cube effect trim. Those are the two choices. Until I personally see P/Ns, the supposed "Titan cube effect trim" is not real. However...with paint you can make it any color you desire.

The only two kinds of silver cube trim are used and new. New looks like what mine looks like after being sprayed. Used is much lighter and looks actual silver instead of silvergrey.
No, not out of country...
I honestly don't remember which version of DupliColor it was. It was straight color; I don't think anything special was mixed in... if it had the lacquer, it would be shiny, correct? If so, then mine is the one without the mix because it is not shiny.Hi there az3579,

Thanks. I have ordered the paint mixed by a paint shop. Got a spare set of trim to work on too
