where can i get touch up paint for my 99 a4, its a gray color...how much and where? thanks

 

dealership... no idea how much, but yeah, i'd only trust the dealer (hell, even their touch-up doesnt always match) metallic paints look like *** when touched up... metallics need to be sprayed on to achieve the look that we get... metallic on a brush, will have swirls of dark/light colours... something about the paint not being 'atomized' when brushed on. it'll stop rust though, hopefully, if its so deep that rust is an issue though, you should try and fill it with something first.

 

i got my touch up at the dealer. for i think 12 (can't be sure). It came with clear coat too. Match pefect and the scratch is only visible because of the sratch being lower in the bumper.

did you mean $12...was it a little touch can or bottle?

 

no matter where you get the paint from it will look like *** where you put it on over the scratch. its just like putting nail polish on you car. try color sand and buffing out the scratch. you have a dual stage paint on you car so go get some 2000 grit and rubbing compound you on you way.

 

i clean it and then tape it off and it looks pretty good. It was a little bigger than a nail polish bottle with car paint and clear coat.
