R1200RT touch up paint

Post by yellowjacket »

I have a 2016 R1200RT LC with the Ebony Metallic paint job. I have a bad scratch or two on the Right back bag and would like to touch it up. Does anyone know where I can purchase some touch up paint that color? I hate to think I would need to order another entire cover or have the cover re painted. Thanks.

Not sure where you live, but in the states try Colorrite, they have all the BMW standard colors.

We have a "Chips Away" guy in the village and his prices are very good for a far better job than I could do  three lots of scratches on motorhome and car cost just over £100 but that included everything for first class results.

Colorite does not carry ebony metallic.  Holt BMW in Ohio sent me a perfect match.  I found them on the MOA forum. Cost me $35 for a small amount, but it was worth it.  Holt BMW.

Well after no help from our local dealer, I called Holt BMW. What a pleasant experience and my paint is on the way. Thanks forum members.
