Best source for touchup paint?

[ichavis]

Hi, I searched this forum and found many references to touchup paint... I am just looking for a touch up pen or small kit in case of future small scratches on the 2014 R1200RT updated with 2018 Mars Red panels.  Can someone recommend a source for a touch up kit?  I see a number on the web but wondering if there is a recommended source?


thanks in advance, Ira

Here in the Uk there is an auto paint supplier that can supply any auto paint in an aerosol. This can be used either with a touchup brush, airbrush or sprayed from the can. The paint code for Mars Red is M4R.  Touch up paint is dear, more cost effective and flexible  is an aerosol.

These BMW touch-up paint pen sets are available, https://shop.bmw.co.uk/bmw-uk-responsiv ... 1355/  need to find one in Mars Red.

I've got one of the above in Midnight Blue for my 2012 Camhead from Amazon, https://www.amazon.co.uk/BMW-Genuine-Mi ... B01D19YDRC

Can aerosol paints be shipped between the UK and the US, if so, at what cost.

Surely they must have auto paint suppliers ?

Thanks David.  I don't think the official BMW touch up paint sticks are available in M4R mars red.... anyway, I ended up just going with BMW Motorcycle Mars Rot Met M4R Touch Up Paint, https://colorndrive.com/gb/touch-up-paint/bmw-motorcycle-mars-rot-met-m4r,222069/details  thanks for listing out the options. I guess with it being a metallic that a touch up pen may be tough .... anyway,  got a basic set from them, sure it will do the trick for small areas . thanks again! Ira
