Default Touch up paint

Hey everyone,

I'm looking at getting some touch up paint for my car, but in a larger quantity IE 500ml tin, not a stupid little nail polish bottle.

Does anyone know where I can go and readily buy this?

Cheers

hello, (digging up an old thread didnt want to start a new one)

just a quick question on touch up paint, scratched some paint off a mazda 3 (Black) about 30cm long/2-3mm wide no panel/dent damage so nothing major. I just wanted to know if touch up paint would be the best way to fix it or get a panel beater to do it?

-if tocuh up paint is the go where is the best place to go?

or

-if a panel beater is the go who should i call that is willing to do such a small job.

thank you.

Its all going to be dependant on colour, when you touch up a scratch that size its going to stand out, so if you want it to look factory its going to need to be resprayed, is this a pearl or metallic black? (if so its going to get interesting)

Really dependant on the colour and where the scratch is located, 30cm is quite long for a scratch, as well as 2-3mil wide (more of a gouge imo). Sounds like metal studs on the back of jeans?

Have a picture of it?
