Interior touch-up paint?
Does anyone know of a source for matching interior touch-up paint? Brush and/or spray. My '01 996 interior is in excellent condition except for a couple of spots where the paint has chipped revealing the black plastic underneath. Thanks in advance!

The do exterior paint touchup kits. No interior. And, in my case, no exterior either.
Thanks anyway.

Hello, I have been doing this trick for a while with great results. Pull a console side cover and take it to ace hardware. Have them match the color with their machine and get a quart of flat latex acrylic enamel. Then, sand down the chips a bit with 400 grit and clean the area to be painted with a micro fiber cloth with a bit of lacquer thinner. I then use a Testors airbrush with the paint thinned a bit with water, usually 3:1. Cover up the areas you don't want over spray on and paint away! Use many light coats...about 6. Enjoy!

OFM is correct. Home Depot can do the same. Works well.
