where can I get resale red touch up paint

[900ssduke]

Want to get a small pot of resale red to touch up the stone chips on my 360. Where would I get it?

[Jules360]

Ferrari dealership?

Actually I dont think they usually sell paint, or not the one I went to. Most paint specialists will have the codes for it. Got some Giallo Fly for the 355 and it was a fantastic match.

Ferrari do not sell touch up pots.
Get your local body shop to mix you some up give them the code from the sticker on your car.
My paint shop do this and put it in a small bottle some ball bearings in to help mixing with brush in the lid.

Or some do actually make you a spray can up there and then if that works better

Thanks, that seems the best plan.

Thanks for the advice. I had never thought of that.

Wasn't be facetious, I used to get a small pot of Rosso Corsa from Lancasters when necessary. Perhaps they no longer sell it.

Audi's Brilliant Red is exactly the same colour as Rosso. £7 or so from the local dealer.

Lancaster's get them from the paint shop that I get mine from they are not Ferrari approved pots.

Get the paint code from under the bonnet and take it to halfords - they'll mix it on the spot and £8 later you have a resonable sized pot. The dealers response will be "we don't touch-up sir, we take it to the bodyshop".

[walkersport]

I have ouch up from Graypaul, and from my loal bodyshop as they call allow a touch of fade, But i can recomend GrayPaul's pot's as they good, you'll need to get a decent modelling brush however, and some white spirit to build up the layers.

My appologies. I did try my F dealer, they wanted to spray the whole front of the car and would not sell touch up bottle. Would do whole front if I wasnt going to thrash it some more and fill it full of more holes. Rather spend my cash on beer. Thanks for all the advice and pm's, I reckon I should have this covered now.

a friend of mine who owned a body shop told me a few years ago the ferrari red is just another fiat colour.might be worth chasing up
