Your painter is to blame here whether he admits it or not...

I agree. My experience is OMNI (and other economy line paints) have less high solids and take more coats to properly cover. Like NOTIME said I have also used it with very good results but I usually bite the bullet and get the PPG base and use Spi or PPG clears.

I agree with this. Most painters will take the time to spray a test panel or two and make note of thier gun settings, pressure, etc. to get a closer match than whats illustrated here. The color discrepancy has much more to do with application technique than coverage, IMO.
