Touch up paint-available by Ford?

[terry1167]

Howdy,

Does know if you can still get the small cans, either in spray or the small brush application, of touch up paint from the dealer for these older Ford trucks? I've seen the wimbledon white in stores but I have a light baby blue and bahama blue two-tone and just want to make a few touch ups.

Thanks,

If you take it to an automotive paint supply store they will use a camera to take a picture of your paint and then put it in a spray can. My supplier charges about $20.

I know NAPA can do it. They did some Boxwood green for me.

Most automotive paint stores will fill rattle cans from a can. The store I use will sell pints. They can even match the fade if you want to go that far.

OR you can take it into your own hands, and go to Walmart or Home Depot and look at the spraycan paint options they've got. If it's just small touch ups, you can get pretty good results doing this. Krylon, Rustoleum and Duplicolor has got alot of colors to chose from, and some are pretty dam close.

Its kind of fun discovering a spraycan paint that you can use for your own touchups. Even if the color you try doesnt work out, its only 3 or 4 dollars, and you can always use the paint for some kind of utility job.

The original, (with the ford logo) can still be found from time to time on evilboy. I'd found some small cans for the 71' Chero I had that matched perfectly, (and was still good paint years later).
