Title: Touch-up paint
Post by: J. Huber on March 30, 2005, 11:24:55

Here's one I never see talked about. Does MB (or anyone else) provide the little touch-up paints for our cars? I have this small really old can of goo from a previous paintjob -- that passes for my color but barely. I went to a local paint store that does automotive paint -- they wanted $35 matching fee plus about $45 for the paint itself... This struck me as too much to touch-up couple hood edge nicks, etc... They have little containers of paint for Toyotas, GMs, etc but not MB.

paintscratch.com is the site I've heard recommended.

Jim et al.  Try these guys:

They don't seem to go back as far as we'd like in years, but a paint code is a paint code!  They do have Signal Red 568, for example.

I have bought from paintscratch and have found there products to be quite good. They offer a wide range of options and sizes for the paint containers/paint sticks etc.
