Default PPG Paint?

I gotta get my car dents fixed up because they really upset me when I see them. Does anyone know of how good PPG paint is? My Neon is color code PS2 (silver) but I'm scared the body shop is going to paint match the dent fixed area poorly. Is there maybe a very close PS2 for the PPG paint?

A good body shop shouldn't have a problem paint matching, but it will cost you.

Silver is one of the toughest colors to match
PPG is very good paint - they also have different lines - meaning their Nexa color line is their "lower" end
and they have Higher end as well
Different clears - etc...
Depending on what you are having done - the techinican will prob "blend" the adjacent panel
meaning he will fade the new paint in to the old - creating a match illusion
then clear over the top of that
Hope this helps
Set your expectation of color match importance up front
hope this helps
