touch up paint

[aeronut]

Is there anywhere I can get touch up paint for my Maser? I can't believe dealers don't stock any. I've seen some US websites where you just tap in your paint code for any car model and you can get a pot done up. Is there anything like this over here?

I posted earlier.....no reply....seems not

Halfords will make up paint from your paint code, but it will cost you and they will probably cock it up

Best of going to yell.com and doing a search for "Paint, Varnish & Lacquer"

Had the same problem with my 328 Ferrari. Halfords did indeed mix a pot for a fiver and a very good match it is too for a 20 year old car. Just took the paint code to them and they had the recipe in their system. Took 15 minutes.

Halfords mixed mine for me and did a good job. Watch them whilst they mix it as it's easy to see if they are getting the proportions right.

Thanks, I'll give Halfords a try first - let's see if they're better than homebase!!

If you ask a dealer nicely (helps if you bought the car from them) or their body shop, they will decant some into a little brush bottle the next time they do some work on a car the same colour.
