Wash the vehicle before application of paint and ensure the surface is completely dry.  Before using, THOROUGHLY SHAKE the touch up paint jar upside down. THEN MIX THE PAINT THOROUGHLY WITH A TOOTHPICK, DABBER OR SIMILAR TOOL. Apply as many dot-coats as necessary to cover the area waiting 5-10 minutes minimum between coats. Tip: Do not apply too much paint, utilize the smaller tools to apply a small amount of paint. Develop a technique of gently dabbing ‘dots’ of paint into the scratch (light dots/coats only!) in a ‘connect-the-dots’ technique. Take a look at our Videos for more instructions:

I FOUND THE PAINT CODE ON YOUR SITE, BUT SAW A DIFFERENT COLOR NAME ELSEWHERE. ARE THEY THE SAME COLOR?

It isn’t common practice – but it isn’t uncommon either – for a car manufacturer to use the same color name for different colors.  For example, a car manufacturer may have a color called “Cherry Red” in 2018, but in 2019 they make a slight alteration to the color making it a little bit brighter.  Although they keep the same color name in 2019, and the difference is hard to notice, the actual color may be different.  While the color name will stay the same, the color code will change to reflect the new color designation.

When placing your touch up paint order make sure you select color based of your vehicles paint code not color name. The same color name can be used in different paint formulas by car manufacturers.

 

HOW CAN I FIND THE EXACT COLOR OF MY CAR?

To find the Paint code of your vehicle, you can take a look at the Compliance / Manufacturer’s / Identification Plate, which should be somewhere on your automobile. It is roughly the size of a credit card, and the Paint code is referred to as “Paint” or “Ext. Color”. Find out how to locate that code here.
