I need to touch up the paint, and i want to remove the rust etc and get her touched up.

I can't find anywhere that sells either tinned cellulose, or preferably spray cans. I have had to use a close match silver to cover up surface rust for now, which blends very well with this colour. however, this is a short term fix.

Anyone know where i can source either polaris silver spray cans, or cellulose tinned?

Take your paint code into halfords mate and they will mix a tin for you,  think it was £10.99 for spray(big can) and £7.99 for bottle with brush in it.
528 for now

I got my local wilco to mix up my can of polaris silver for my old 528i which cost me £10.99 per 400 ml can and the colour match was superb. Bought several tins off them to spray my bodykit and rear apron and all matches were very close

You should also be able to get the paint from your BMW dealer. They do touch up pens for most colours and a friend of mine sourced some genuine BMW paint for his CSL and BMW Germany made it up to get the perfect colour match as his is the only CSL in the world with the colour of paint. BLAUBLACK.
