Touch up paint

Where do you guys recommend getting touch up paint?

I strongly recommend the Dr. Colorchip kit, sold by our host. If it comes in your car's color, its worth every penny. Search the catalog for: DRC-ROADRASH

I got Dr. Colorchip for my 79SC. It is an odd color, but the paint matched perfectly. I just had to give them my paint code from my door jam.

It took a long time to apply properly. I did probably 100+ spots on the car (road rash from NC back roads) and it took me 8 hours across two evenings.

It was totally worth it and I'm probably going to do it again next summer for the nicks I've acquired over three more years.

While I certainly support our host on everything when they have the goods, you might have a local supplier and not realize it. In our little town we have a Parts Plus automotive supplier. With a color code the can match any paint there is. Just did it for my wife's 2004 Toyota Highlander.

If you're just touching up paint chips, the Dr. Color chip system is pretty nice. For larger jobs, getting the matched paint is a good way to go.

I go to my local PPG Automotive paint store and get a pint of the color I need.

I have been using PPG OMNI MTK with good success.
