C5Bob Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 My '07 RX400h has the beautiful silver/grey painted wheels. There are some nicks in the paint that are unsightly. Anybody find a touch up paint that matches the wheel paint? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryphon Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Bob. Finding color coded touch-up paint for OEM wheels is usually difficult. You could ask your dealer but I doubt it is available. Companies that supply paint to body shops have custom mixers/scanners much like Home Depot does for house paint, and can mix a small bottle for less than $10.00. But you would either need to get a chip to take in for their scanners or an entire wheel. Frankly Home Depot would probably be easier, but I don't know if house paint could survive moisture from rain and washing. Or you can do what I did in the past when looking for a specific color for an older motorcycle--check out the DupliColor displays are mass merchants and auto parts stores. You might find a match or at least something close. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cduluk Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Go to autozone or a store like that... Find some silver paint and black paint, and mix them until you get the right match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
