Question Design 90 touch-up paint

Fellow Rennlisters--

Does anyone know if there's a touch-up paint available at parts stores that will match the factory paint on these wheels?

Thanks.

I think you have to go to the Autozone or Sears and check them for matching paint touch up. Silver is a difficult colour for a exact match, especially when you not know if the wheels ever where painted.

The stuff you'll find at your local auto parts store will be a close match but not an exact match. If you can find it, Wurth European Blend Lacquer Spray Paint, Metallic Silver is a perfect match. Unfortunately they no longer make it but there is another paint; Einszett Silver that matches the Wurth paint exactly. Good luck and if you decide to refinish your wheels on your own please post before and after pictures.

Thanks for your replies. I was only planning on touching up a few dings, not refinishing the wheels. I understand the dealership would have the right stuff, but the closest one is about 50 miles from here.

I just painted one wheel with EINSZETT brand silver, and it is a perfect match to the others! I clear coated with WURTH which went on with no problem.

Spot spraying a couple of dings will blend with the original.
