I am looking for touchup painting for my silver TL magna.
the code is EH.
Anyone knows where I can buy spray cans of that painting?

I thought the code was KX for silver (pewter) TL's
Can get them from auto one or autobarn

Pewter on the KJ Verada, was also KX.
THey have those book thingies you can look through at Autobarn too when getting touch up paint - look up year model make and colour etc, and it will list the colour / code tin you can purchase.
Keep in mind - it prolly wont be a perfect match.
Paint batches at the Mitsu factory (or any car factory) change ever so slightly during production - and the whole New Paint VS Old paint thing too.

Also, be aware that there may be variants of the same paint code.
I have 2 silver Magna's here, both with KX as the paint, but one's light & the other's dark: both are listed according to my painter, but perhaps not in Autobarn, etc?

isn't the TL/W Silver "platinum..."
not Pewter for the earlier Silvers in the TH/J range

According to http://www.uniquecarsandparts.com.au/colour_codes_mitsubishi_M-Z.htm the EH code is "Platinum"
I just got a spray can made to match my paint code today from Autobarn, cost $30.

Well, I've got a KJ2 & a TL, both with the same KX paint-code, as was my last TJ2, but the KJ is definitely a different colour. Panel shop looked it up & said there's 2 shades.

Thanks.
The code is EH. And I had a look at supercheap the other day and there is no EH.
Does autobarn have wider range of colors?

Autobarn will make up a can from their colour charts. Off-the-shelf they only have nail-polish sized bottles in a limited range of colours. Next to the spray cans of primer and clearcoat, look for the one labelled "K&H Colour Spray". Take that to the counter and quote your paint code; should take about 10-15 to fill and cost $30.
