Touch up Paint
 

I have a few, small spots on my car that need a little touch up paint. I have a 98 a4 with Peral White paint. (l0b9) I asked the dealer yesterday, and they only had it in spray paint form?! First of all, I thought this was a multi-coat type paint? Also, spray painting just seems terrible to me. Needless to say, I didn't buy it.

My question to you guys, does Audi sell touch up bottles of paint/clear coat/etc for my color..(L0b9)?
If so how much does it cost?

Also, is there any on the net? I've been looking and I haven't really found too much for my color.

Thanks

i have never used this, but sounds like what you need. might be worth a try for $11

I'm not sure if this would work for the pearl white, from what i hear its a nightmare to touch up ....

I used spray cans on my silver bumper, depending on the size of the scratch or damage it may be easier for you as well but itwould require a little sanding and feathering if I'm not mistaken.

Looks like that is everything that I need--3 coats.

Brrman, were you happy with how it turned out after using this?

I need to order touch up paint too and was wondering how to find the exact color of my car?
on paint scratch they have only one color of "hibiscus red" for a 98 A4, is that the right one?

RE: Touch up Paint
 

Look in your trunk under the carpet and you will see what your paint number is. That way you can be sure to get the exact color.

ok, thanks for the info

No problem, I forgot to mention, along with your color red, there is also a Laser Red. So make sure you got the right one.

Yeah I thought it turned out pretty well when I used it. Use a black or very dark gray primer tho.

Did you use the pen or the bottle?

RE: Touch up Paint
 

I used the spray can - I painted my grill trim the same color as my car. So I did not use it for touch up, but the color was identical.

Thanks for your help everyone. I'm going to order touch up paint from where brrman suggested today.

well, you could always spray a bit of paint in a jar and use a brush to apply it.

I got some touch up stuff from Audi. It came with the paint and a clearcoat.

How'd you get that? lol

From your dealer?

RE: Touch up Paint

A4Andy where did you get that i need it i got a a spot of rust im grinding down need some of that shit

RE: Touch up Paint
 

Wow, my dealer said that they don't carry that. Does audi not make touch up for LOB9 pearl white paint? I could have sworn that I heard that somewhere.

RE: Touch up Paint
 

i went and talked to my dealer and they gave it to me for about 5 bucks

I'm jealous, mine doesn't have it. I guess I'll just have to order some off the internet.
