Touch up paint
 
I was at the dealer today and they could not locate the touch up paint in their system. They said it's not in the system and not able to add the item...

Anyone experience this? I was at longo toyota..my car is ultramarine.

Would Subaru dealer sell it? But I get a better price at a Toyota dealer...ugh

I suggest you talk with a different person behind the parts counter....;)

The Toyota/Scion dealer in my area had to order it for me.

I got mine from my local Toyota dealer overnight last year. The part number on my invoice is C0355-00E8H

Killerbee 09-30-2013 08:45 AM

Toyota cant order it over here aswell. I did go to a local paint shop and let them mix the color, did cost me 8$.

J8A is the code.

Part number for Ultramarine touch up vile: 00258-00E8H-21

That's good for a Toyota look up system, your dealer should be able to use it. List should be $9.36, expect to pay a little markup.

I have the "dr colorchip" touch up paint and it works great. Its a little pricey but worth it IMO

#944_10_Series_FRS 09-30-2013 07:08 PM

I ordered it at Automotivetouchup.com

It will not show on their website. You actually need to call them up, give them the color code #s and they will take care of you.

How many times have you washed your car since applying it?

Do you find it to be permanent or just a temporary filler?

Hey guys slightly off topic but I got this small dent on the top of the driver side, and it has started to rust. Anyone know how to fix this kind of thing?

I was planning to get some touch up paint and clear coat from Toyota/Subaru. If I just paint over it, will the rust continue to grow?

Thanks for the help

hanabie 10-05-2013 02:42 PM

clean the rust asap and put on touch up few coats.

drcolorchip.com recommends this 3M sanding pen on rusted paint chips.

Found it in their FAQ section under the "surface types" drop down menu.

Never add touch up paint over rust! Clean it first no matter what.

washed it maybe couple times
too soon to know if its permanent, i got it about 2 months ago
so far its holding up pretty well, and its way better than a black spot, blends good

Fine grit sandpaper and get down to bare metal. You also need to make sure you get back into what looks like good paint to make sure you get all the rust. When you finish sanding, the area on a small nick like that should be at least twice as large as when you started. Dry it thoroughly and apply some primer immediately to seal it until you can decide whether to paint it yourself or have a pro shoot it.

What kind of primer? any examples? what does it look like and if we can get it at like Canadian tire or big box stores ( incananada?)
thanks

It's been too long since I did my own work. I have no knowledge of current products, sorry.
Any decent parts store should be able to set you up. If you have it painted professionally they'll probably sand it off and start clean anyway. The sanding and priming is just to stop the rust while you decide what to do. Rust is car cancer. You need to excise it immediately so it doesn't spread.

Thanks
