I've got a few marks on the body work, e.g. stone chips, which while not sufficiently bothersome to merit a respray are unsightly enough to trouble me !

While it's presumably not going to be possible to match a chameleon paint job with touch up paint, a discrete dab of something even remotely similar would be preferable to ugly white showing through where the paint has been chipped.

Anyone know where I can find someone able to supply a small quantity of chameleon (blue) paint to carefully touch up the damage ?

Thanks,

Dr. D.

There should be a colour code at the back of your boot engraved on a steel plate. Any decent body workshop should be able to match the colour, providing your car still has the original paint. I went to a TVR specialist to be on the safe side. It will take a week also, as they may not have it in stock. cost around £20.

Many thanks - spoke with the guys at Barnet TVR. "Special" paint (i.e. chameleon, spectraflair) = £30 + VAT. Hopefully they can get me some.....

Cheers,
