SoCalCarCulture Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Most local auto paint stores will do the same for about $20!
Ddms Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 (edited) Undiluted automotive urethane touch-up paints (PPG, Dupont, Omni, etc.) are available in virtually any color at automotive paint stores like Finish Masters. A 2 oz. jar costs about $14. You're actually getting four oz. of sprayable paint, because it's intended to be thinned 1:1 with medium-temp reducer, which you can buy at the same store. If you don't know exactly what color you want, you can eyeball their OEM code/swatch books. My store doesn't make up spray cans, but others might. These are gen-u-wine automotive paints for pro use, so you'll need to clear-coat them with 2K urethane or TS-13 or U-POL. BTW, SoCalCarCulture, I go to the Pasadena store. Except for that skinny little rude guy, they're very helpful. Edited December 25, 2010 by Ddms
