I am looking to pick up a spray can or two of OEM Ford exterior paint.

If anyone has ever purchased OEM paint in the past, from where did you obtain it and how much did it cost?

Thank you in advance.

Steve,

Mirror Glaze on Preston used to have boat loads of spray cans.

Have you called them?

I was there last week but did not see a can that matched my paint. However, I'll give them a ring.

Expensive, but maybe worth calling?

Steve, that's easy. Your friendly LM dealer. I wanted a can of touch up paint for the Silver Birch, and they mixed it up, right there, put it in a nice bottle/brush, and said, "there y'go". :D

You can probably go to most any auto-body supply shop and get the correct color also. They can take the color code from your car and mix tints into a base coat to exactly match your cars color.


You can then buy a "Prevail" sprayer to apply it or use a HPLV gun if you have one. The Prevail sprayer is a kit that has a glass bottle and a co2 charge that sprays just like a regular can of spraypaint. We use them at work to touch-up the boats if they get dinged.

Look up PPG paints in your area. They usually can even put it in spray cans. For that "Say it with Krylon" look;)
