PW paint formulation/brand best Match?

WM711 · 04-20-2016, 05:35 PM

I need some repair work done to my PW 13 and was just wondering if anybody could suggest a brand which starts out closest to a match. Thanks, I'm enjoying the forum.

What's wrong with using the Nissan paint code for PW? Are you doing the painting yourself?

PW is a nightmare to match

First is to find a good painter. I just had mine done and it is a perfect match. BASF Glasurit is the brand my shop used.

Glasurit is super quality. Did your shop panel match or did they blend? My intention is to use a shop that uses paint the forum has found that matches well.

No blending done on mine. They just did the 4 panels and it matched perfectly.
