Default Touch up paint!

Hi guys wondering if anyone had spare touch up for rally blue? If not where can i get it and a rough price? Ive tried the usuals but no one stocks so im thinking direct through subaru.

Cheers

Subaru car yards sell one mixed by scratchX but I binned it after I found that it was too light blue compared to the original paint, it stood out heaps...

Thanks to Tony for his ChipEx - works a charm, or the Autopro / Auto one mixes which are way better.

Seems like the tone the rally blue has changed in recent years, so get the dealer paint if yours is a 2011+ model, any earlier go mix from shop.

Only thing that may come in handy getting the dealer paint are the pearls in the paint, you wont get that at auto one.

Solution - apply auto one mixed paint first...wait to dry then touch a bit of dealer paint for the pearls....like new!

p.s :i just touched up a few spots on mine last week, I know what im saying ;-)
p.s2: or get ChipEx UK but costs a bit.

I just gave RJ a WRB chipex kit. Once you work out how to do it properly its really good.

Car touch up paint - colour match guaranteed
