You could try Castle Hill Toyota, i think thats where mine came from, just give them your paint code and they should be able to get one for you.

Depends on the colour. I have a mica red and it is painfully obvious if you dont use a clear coat. Maybe some of the solid colours (like white) could get away with it.

I would suggest using a clear coat as it will protect the colour, and help "build up" the stone damage to the depth of the surrounding paint.

My soarer is dark green

Can i buy clear coat as a pen? (like the paint pen) do i need a special type of clear coat?

cheers.

I dont know about the clear coat pen.

I ended up going to the local paint shop and getting a litre of paint mixed up as no one else would help. Just gave ol matey the paint code off the build plate. Also picked up some clear coat acrylic from super cheap and some flexi prime (as I was painting the rubber lip at the same time)

I just use a tiny brush to apply the paint and clear coat.

I was just at CH toyota and saw they have a drawer full of paint touch up kits.

Ring James Sloan in parts and he'll be able to help.

Ohh.

Well he sold some straight over the counter when I was standing there. I guess they'd be more likely to have local stuff in stock than imported. I didn't really pay attention as to what model it was for as I was there for engine mounts.

Is he sorting you out anyway?

No. I need to find the paint pen quicker. So i'm going to try to get it local.
