Touch up paint
 

O.K.
Three weeks old and some dillweed door-dinged it! Good thing I didn't see it happen, probably be in jail!
Anyway, I looked at Advance Auto at Dupli-Color and the only thing I found was "Cloud White" for Nissan. Who sells a touch-up pen, ect.? PW.
'scuze me, QAB.

The stealership (dealership) will more than likely sell you touch-up paint. I cannot be 100% sure on this but a phonecall to your local parts department at the nearest nissan dealership will confirm this. When I worked at Honda we sold them in nailpolish bottles as well as paint-pens with a finer tip.

The dealership will be your best bet too because it will be colour coded to your vehicle for an exact (most of the time) match.

Dr. Colorchip is awesome. Lots of members here have used it with great success including myself

Does it just need paint? You said door ding.

Several online sites have it. I bought some from the Z store. You might check several of the site vendors for it.

Dr. Colorchip is excellent stuff.

you should look up Dr. Color chip. I have used this for my black G37 and FX50 works 500 times better then any pen. gooogle them and what you see in the pictures before and after is exactly how it works. it is worth every penny. i love this product will never buy a pain pen again

It's like $8 from Nissan. Go to a dealership.

Thanks Folks
 

Great feed back. Looks like Dr. Color Chip was what I was looking for...
and it was just a scratch, not a dent.(still would like to shoot somebody)

Thanks again,

Another vote for Dr. Colorchip, it works very well. I've used it on several different vehicles. Lots of videos on youtube if you want to check it out.

Dr. Colorchip uses the factory paint to mix...

There's no doubt that you guys highly recommend Dr colorchip. Pretty sure it's great. Wouldn't it be easier to go to the dealer and get some that's also color matched. Especially if it's only 8 bucks. If that's true. Or does the Dr colorchip apply better?

That door ding is nothing compared to the guy who keyed my car, I used drcolorchip. Works a bit but its still deep so i need another few layers of it, but its the best for those situations.

Factory touchup paint doesn't work with the Colorchip process, at least according to Colorchip. The paint that comes with the Colorchip kit is thinner than the factory paint.
My two cents: Colorchip works very well. Took me a little practice to get better results though.

The Doctor Colorchip system works but is way overpriced IMO. Also the stupid instructions suggestion to dab on the paint and then smear it flat with your thumb while wearing the supplied rubber glove didn't work. I used an old credit car that I thinned the edge on so it works like a squeegee to bring the paint down to the level of the surface around the chip. It does take some practice to blend it with the other liquid that is supplied but I got fairly good results with tiny chips. One chip at the rear of the rocker panel about 10mm x 3mm and deep enough to show the dark primer took several applications and is more noticeable but you have to be on your hands and knees to see it so it's not as big of a deal as it would be on a door or hood for example.

I called the dealer today. I can get some for $9.50. They have to order gun metallic (kad).

Thanks again for the info, folks.
Going to order Dr. Color Chip.

Get your color code from the sticker on your driver's side door jam... It will say Color under the VIN and then below that it will have a code consisting of one letter and one number... for example mine is Platinum Graphite and the code is K51. Call the dealer and order it from them. So they dont screw you on price, say you called about a week ago and that you want to buy it now, forgot the exact price and who you talked to, but that is was 10 bucks or something. They should charge you $10.88.

Now do whatever you want with the paint!

Just saw your post :) 9.50 is good:)

before you order dr. color chip, check out automotivetouchup. I tried both dr color chip and had better results with automotivetouchup.

dr color chip seems and is packaged like quality but the paint just didn't match up as well as automotivetouchup did for me.

Any auto body shop can mix it up very quickly just tell them the paint code (QAB same as mine)they can do it while you wait and if it is a good shop they probably won't charge you.:hello:

Does the factory paint pen have clear coat built in? Does Dr. Colorchip?
