Hey,
1st thread - hopefully its in the right place.
Did a search and no luck, but im wondering if anyone here know where to get VW touch spary - not the pens the dealers sell.
Can only find 1 place online (zakparts) and they wont ship outside UK. google and ebay haven't helped. So any suggestions?
(The colour im looking for is Reflex Silver for a Tiguain)
jt there are companys in the uk that will buy it for you and ship it to you as well. Check a thread in the general section of me asking for something similiar.
ok thanks - i seached for touch up spray but didn't see anything. will give it another shot.
edit: oh freight forwarding, not sure if they ship spray paints though, will check - but thanks for the heads up
For obvious reasons, flammable items such as spray paints can be difficult to ship in small packages so most sellers won't do it.
One of these might solve the problem for you:
PPC - Minisprayers
I've had one for many years — bit crude, but gets the job done.
Then get a touch-up can of paint such as the ones that come with most Toyotas (VW should also have them) and some thinners.
Alternatively, the auto paint suppliers will colour match it for you, although they usually won't do less than half a litre.
I know we picked a touch up bottle for our Subaru (it was like a large nail polish bottle). And a mate who was a spray painter fixed us up for a home cooked dinner. We would have had him over for dinner anyway.
Couple of weeks ago I dropped into a BCF store and next door there is an Autobarn so I went in to have a mindless browse. At the parts desk down the back I noticed a guy colour matching paint. Being curious I had a look see. He then confirmed the colour match results with the customer then proceeded to put it in a pressurised spray can. I never new they had this service. Be interesting as to how well they match colours.

Yeah I ended up doing the same thing, yesterday on my way home i stopped in a autobarn to grab some Liqui-Moli and got some mixed up it is pretty close. Nice patch up. they also have some clear coat too
hey,
autolac in hotham pde artarmon (nsw). Just take your paint code with you (not paint name), they'll mix it, and have a specialised machine which puts it in a pressure pack can, ready for spraying. i bought some last week for $27.00
