The Most Common Questions Asked About Ford Touchup Paint
How Do You Use Ford Touchup Paint
Using touch up paint for your Ford begins with preparing the surface near the repair for paint. Whether you use our paint
pen, bottle or aerosol can, you must have a smooth and insanely clean surface for the paint to adhere to. That means a smooth,
clean surface with no cracks or scratches and very clean with no dust, oils, fingerprints, grease or wax on the Ford body
parts you are painting. Then the first paint layer is our specially formulated primer. It blends the painted and bare metal
parts together for a stronger foundation for the next stage, which is color coat. Follow your Ford touchup paint directions
carefully here, and build up the color in several thin coats rather than one runny coat. When the color coat dries, make
your Ford color pop and protect it with our precision engineered clear coat, designed to work best with AutomotiveTouchup
up color coat paints.
How do you use a Ford Touchup Paint Pen?
If you can wash your car and make a list, you have the skills needed to use a paint pen full of Ford touchup paint. To fix
a small chip or scratch, clean the area to be repaired thoroughly, then apply primer to cover any exposed metal using a
primer pen. After it dries completely, go over the chip with the color coat pen to blend in the chip with the OEM paint,
then let it dry, then use a clear coat pen to go over the repair and seal and protect the paint of your repair.
How Do I Order The Correct Ford Color?
You'll need to know the factory OEM paint color code to get the exact match color for your Ford. It's
easy to find, Ford puts it right on the sticker you'll find in the door jamb on the driver's side of your vehicle.
Look on the sticker for "EP" or "Exterior Paint" and write down the letters or numbers and letters next to it.
Where Can I Buy The Best Ford Touchup Paint
Many pros agree the best Ford touchup paint comes right here from AutomotiveTouchup. Our precision engineered paint gives

what your skill level is. From Ford touch up paint in a pen for a little chip to a gallon of paint to repaint the entire
hood, we have everything you need to order in one convenient place.
Can't I get Touchup Paint From My Ford Dealer?
You could, but it is usually very expensive and only comes in tiny amounts. Worse, they may not even have your exact color,
especially if you have an older model Ford. That's why AutomotiveTouchup is better than going to a dealer. We have your
exact color in the right size you need from bottles, aerosol and paint pens, to ready to spray in pints, quarts and gallons.
How Much Will It Cost To Touchup My Ford Paint?
The cost to repair your Ford paint depends on how big the repair will be and then figuring out the quantity of paint needed
to make a quality repair. For example, our most popular product, 12 oz aerosol cans, are available
with custom mixed paint to match your Ford exactly starting at $24.95 a can. This paint quantity
guide will show you how much primer, color and clearcoat you'll need to do the job right and look like a professional
did it.
