I've heard so many people that have had problems with halfords and mica blue paint.
Esp Karens MR2 challenge car- they ended up going for another colour completely after they got fed up with so many
'diffrent' versions from halfords.
(my SC was a few different mica blues tbh, before it became burnt colour!)
It may be okay for a very small fix in an non-conspicuous area, and also depends on how fussy you are with paint being perfect.If the reat of the car is good, then best to take to a bodyshop IMO
