Good place for touch up paint? Green?
I have only had my 8 for a few weeks, but want to pick up some touch up, since I live in Michigan and chips are inevitable. Where is a good place for touch up paint? Especially the nordic green, which seems hard to match. Would a mazda dealer be the best place or would specialty auto stores (i.e. autozone, murrays, pep-boys) be better? Thanx all.

The touch-up paint that Mazda makes doesn't work very well.
I have applied it exactly the way they suggested and the yellow paint has turned white after a only a few months. The paint is also very difficult to apply. It is very similar to rubber cement. It is too thick, drys too quickly and winds up being really stringy. Oh, and the supplied brush sucks too. I would suggest going to an auto parts store and getting some of the new paint pins made by Duplicolor (is that the name?). Can't help you on color match, but I think any really dark green will work well. |
