Can the paint codes be translated into any other codes used by paint manufacturers?
Where do I find some 199 White? A can, not spray. Volvo?

Volvo can still supply most paints, either in tiny aerosol, or 5l (irc) buckets. Easiest thing is to find a place that knocks up paint for cars, there are loads over here, you give them your paint code, they look it up in a 3" think catalogue, and then put in the red/yellow/blue for all to be well 
Most here are known by reputation for colour match and quality

Yeh thats true i just bought a load of aerosols for some colour coding etc!!! Got them from volvo.
Otherwise getting the car colour chipped is good if you have a friendly one as then its easy to get some stuff painted like bodykit bits etc and snow caps!!!

Decided to colour code your snowcap
You know it makes sense!
Rule of thumb.... 1 Volvo aerosol-- just enough to the top half of the snowcap, and no more
