I just discovered something interesting that I thought I would share. I have been looking for touch-up paint in a can. The duplicolor paint I have used in the past in the small tube never really matched up with my color, Seattle Silver. The paint I used was the right paint code YR-94M, but when I checked on the door jamb my paint code is YR-94M-3. I did some checking and found this, http://www.paintscratch.com/search.htm I put in the the two different numbers and two different color swatches popped up and it turns out that YR-94M-3 is a little lighter and slightly more silver than YR-94M, and I did some more looking for other Honda colors and by adding the -3 or -4 it changes the color a little. I thought that was neat and explains a lot of things.
