Default Touchup Paint

Well went out and ate with some friends on Monday and when I went out yesterday to go wash the car I noticed that my passenger side door got keyed. So now I need to get a hold of some touchup paint and fix that. ####ing pissed off about it too!! Anyone know any good websites that offer touchup paint?

That totally sucks dude. My old, old BB got keyed a long time ago, and that pissed me off hugely. Thankfully it wasn't all that bad.

If it's bad, try talking to your insurance company as you'll probably need to get the whole door repainted. If not, you can pick up touch-up paint from a dealership for $5.00

Actually, if you want, I just remembered I have a bottle of Silverstone touch-up paint left over from my old car. Plenty left over in the bottle. It's been sitting in my car-care box in my closet.

Shoot me a PM if you want it.

Yea I saw and it just pissed me off. It isn't too big though so I won't need to get the whole door repainted. But I'm still mad about it.

automotivetouchup.com. I've used on my S and my Wrangler. Matches perfect.

I have nearly a full container of Silverstone touch-up paint left from my old car. I can't use it on my new one, as it's Suzuka.


You can have it for free if you want it.

As long as you have the cap on tight, no. Just needs a good shaking to get the metallic bits and other stuff mixed up well again.

I might have to take you up on your offer. I'm guessing you have the aersol spray can?

Uh. no. This is NOT an aerosol can. It comes in a bottle similar to fingernail polish. There is a little brush on the end of the stick attached to the cap. Its the way they all come, except for the new dispensers which from what I hear, are more like a pen.

I just picked up some touch up paint yesterday, it had the brush thing and a pen tip on it.
I got it from a Honda dealer, for under 9 bucks. I did check out an aerosol can from the local paint shop and that was about 25 bucks, but you get alot more paint.
Paul inflation sucks.
IMO the pen thing sucks.
