So, I finally got a touch up!

Got my car nice and clean today, decided I would give the touch up paint a go (G41) did it on the front bumper as a trial since I'll probably get the whole thing resprayed at some point anyway and from first looks, it seems to be dark blue.... Is this normal? I wiped it off with a tissue pretty much straight away as I didn't like the look of it and it looked black on the tissue, I find this a bit confusing.

Doesn't sound right but you can never tell until it has fully dried. Find a section out of view under the arches or somwhere more difficult and put a small amount on, leave 24 hours and see how it comes out.

 

Nissan doesn't do a stick for my colour but i got it from the scratch doctor and its pretty good.

 

Good luck!

Nissan touch up paints dont match at all fella. I tried a magma red one on mine and it was alot darker and stood out badly. In the end mixed the paint with another manufacturer similar colour to get a close match, used a product called Langka also to level off the blob.

I'm guessing any variation would show up a lot more on your Magma red one that it would on my Black. I gave up in the end. Will just have to wait until I can get the thing resprayed

Yep, looks like crap to be honest. Area i touched up is about the length and thickness of the white tip of my pinky finger. After paint cured now its lighter, originally was darker before mixing it HAHA.

Is it a 2 stage pearl? Some 2 stages have a black coat then a colour coat.

 

Bizarre way of doing it but that's how they get the paint to pop.

I just gave my paint shop the colour code for my Kuro

 

and they had it made up to spray my door handles, perfect match

 

also they gave me a small pot for touching in stone chips.
