Touch-Up Paint
 
Does anyone know where I can get some Velocity Red Mica touch up paint for a decent price and preferably already in a container I can use to fill scratches, though a small can of the stuff is fine. My local Advance doesn't seem to carry it and there are probably better places online anyways.

Oh, and I can't find anything else about paint in this section, so you can't say I didn't search.

If anyone has used a certain site, please give some feedback on the quality and service.

Thanks

Velocity Red's color code is 27A: http://www.touchuppaintonline.com/Mazda/RX-8

I got my paint from that site several months ago and it matched perfectly. But I didn't use my paint to repair scratches, I had to paint a new side skirt and was too cheap to pay a body shop to do it. It came out looking really nice though :)

That site has really good prices. What color did you get?

You might want to consider Dr. Colorchip. It works better than the Mazda vial of touchup in my experience. drcolorchip.com

^.....Huey....you've really used it huh?
Little more on the experience please.....even though there's not a lot to say.
Was thinking of trying on my daughters black 3 for her paint chips.

^ Yes, I found it quite good and it precludes blobbing since you wipe it down as the last step. The color match is better than the Mazda touchup too. Nothing short of a respray is perfect but it does what you would expect it to do.
