Touch up paint for factory wheels

FukuokaKid · Aug 29, 2013

Mazda does not make touch up paint for our wheels. Do any aftermarket companies make anything that matches pretty well?

My wife scrapped one of the wheel on our 2012 5 this morning. @ $550 a wheel, replacement is not an option.

Post your recommendations, experiences along with the products used.

Thanks!

Any good Body shop should have a spectrophotometer. They might help you out at for no charge or free if they sell you the paint. The next option is to paint all four or just the two on the same side if you get close enough to the org. color. If they are really chewed up you can use an epoxy filler and get the right profile back. Use a strong two part paint (catylitic) if available, preferably epoxy as well.

Or just wait till the other wheel gets scratched so one side looks in uniform (shocked)

I'm thinking to do plasti-dip on mine, get darker color if you prefer to hide the dust as well
