ive got some chips that need to be touched up, is the paint from paintscratch.com $36 really that much better than what i can do with the $4 paint from courtesy?

has anyone used the touchup paint kit from meguires i believe? it is suspose to thin the paint and comes with a tool to make the surface flat after the touchup is applied.

 

nissan sells something like that too... i keep seeing it whenever I go to the parts dept. I think it's called blob?

 

just get the touch up from your local dealer...it's cheaper than courtesy...i paid $3.75 for my at a local dealer...as far as paintscratch being better i dunno...

 

Personally I don't like the touchup paint from Nissan because it doens't match correctly. It's too dark, although my car's is Concord Mist. I have paint from Paintscratch and its damn good. I just touched up a spot on my trunk with the Paintscratch paint and it matches close to perfect not like stupid Nissan paint. What I'm really going to do is repaint the whole trunk lid when I get some time off.

 

that's true. Nissan paint is ok w/ solid colors like superblack

 

well do u guys know where i can find touch up for a dark metalic grayish color? it's almost like black..i tried paintscratch before and they didn't have it...i believe it's called granite pearl..

 

Look under your hood and get the color code. That's the only way your going to get matching paint.

 

deezo, when u got your touch up from paintscratch did u also order the clearcoats? i was wondering if i can buy clearcoat else where

 

Paintscratch sell it all. There's some good reading on there site too so take a look at the site.

Paintscratch can hook you up. I used the Nissan black touch up and it is ok. I applied, let it dry and then waxed and buffed the spots. Mai8nly to prevent and rusting as the marks were on my hood. A year later, I cannot tell where they were.
