Bodyshops/Dealerships all mix thier own paint. It's really not a big deal. As long as you have a shop that is good, and thier tech's care. We mix every color, and variant made. It's not a problem.

Go to an Infiniti dealer. They should have some. Be aware, it would be a whole new clearcoat. I said this in a different thread, I have it on my black '09 FX35. It really doesn't work that well. I still see all the micro-scratches that I've seen on my black cars I've owned before. Could it be a little better? Sure. I just can't tell. The manual says to leave it in hot sun to work. I've done that on-purpose numerous times. Little scratches still there. Just my opinion. Again, try a few Infiniti dealers. I know you guys in the UK just got them.

Hope that helps.

so theres not much point getting the special scratch sheild laqcuer then?

Richie, I think a good detailing job should protect the car and keep it looking as good as the Scratch Shield. Again, it's my opinion, but I do have it. It just came with my Infiniti, but I don't think it's offered this year. That's what I've heard. If you'd ask me if it was worth it.. I'd say, "Not really." I could use that money for some good detailing that would take care of those little tiny scratches. That's what Scratch Shield is for. Not for deep scratches.

scratch sheild is nissans self healing lacquer isnt it? there are vids of it on youtube working, i just want to know where to get it to repair my badly scratched roof that needs painting

Infiniti.

looks like it needs a lot of heat for it to self-heal

I'll make sure to get out in my driveway with my "boiling water machine" and spray down my car. :rofl2: Mine clearly doesn't even come close to that.

i still dont know where to buy the correct stuff for my paintshop to use.... :(

Impressed
 

I checked out your various album photos, very impressive, your the kind of neighbor I would like to have. Maybe see you at the Z gathering in Nashville this summer. I just bought my Z about a month ago, same blue like yours

LOL...Yeah, I've been a bit of a mod junkie over the years. Might make it to Nashville!

still dont know how to repair my car properly

Okay Richie, go back and read this post again. I've tried to tell you a bunch of times, if you want it done, go to, or call an Infiniti dealer!

does the uk even have an infiniti dealer? :S

ohhhh we do ! lol and they can fix it for me, they want £400 for just the roof! :( lol
