Hi everyone. I want to buy touch up paint for my 2014 Maxima's rims. I have the "gun-metal" 19 inch rims.

Does anyone know the paint code for them?
Or where can I find this paint?

Thank you.

I have been looking for some also. The color is called dark hyper silver. There does not appear to be any paint code and it does not seem to be available. If the scratch is not too large applying something close may be good enough.

This is probably our best option:

Guys,

My RF 19" OEM sport wheel suffered a slight case of curb rash on the beautiful Hypersilver finish. Not too bad, about 2" in length and on the high part of the lip...really close to the tire. I took my time to sand it smooth, wipe it down with denatured alcohol, then headed off to Autozone (in the wife's car). What I experimented with worked darn near perfect, and I had neighbors over to try to find the paint repair from standing 2 feet away. No one could spot it. Here's what I bought, and mixed...

Two bottles of Dupli-Color touch up paint:
"Scratch Fix 2 in 1", NG CC 410 Bright Silver Met. PS2 Chrysler
"Scratch Fix 2 in 1", NG CC 427 Brilliant Black Crystal PXR, AXR Chrysler

I used the built-in brush to place about 10 drops of the silver in a clean plastic bottle cap, used as a dish. I then placed one drop of the black into the silver, mixed it thoroughly with a toothpick, then used the silver brush to carefully apply the mixture to the rash repair. It dried really fast, and the instructions said to wait 30 minutes between coats. I didn't wait...never do with touch up paint, and it has always worked fine. I did around 6 very carefully controlled coats. And now, it looks great.

Given the variances of the Hypersilver paint process, your wheels may vary from mine, so you may have to experiment a bit with the mixture. But basically, it's lots of silver and a touch of black.

I have found that K11 is a close match, but definitely not perfect. I had posted some pictures here of the touch up i did to show the minor difference in color.

If you have small spots to touch up, you wont notice the difference unless you are up really close.

Since I only have a relatively small scratch K11 should work fine, thanks!

This is some good info, I have been looking for wheel touchup as well and had no luck. Anyone know what color is a good match for the standard silver 18" wheels?
