Why The Two-Step Paint System?

Your 1979 Ford Escort is painted at the factory with a high quality basecoat/clearcoat system. This two-step paint system consists of step one, the basecoat, which is your car’s actual color, and step two, the clearcoat, the specially formulated clear paint that protects the base color and provides the luster and deep shine your vehicle came with when new. AutomotiveTouchup products faithfully reproduce your vehicle manufacturer’s basecoat/clearcoat system.

Here's what our customers are saying about our Touch Up Paint:

James S, owner of a 1978 Ford from Collinsville, OK

The Ford Thunderbird Diamond Jubilee was a special car with a special paint color. Out of all the places I have tried, your 3E paint was a perfect match.

Peter K, owner of a 1978 Ford from Newbury Park, CA

Have used several colors now and all have been excellent matches to original classic car colors. I have used, touch up, spray, and now quart size paints, all have met expectation. I have also used their sandpaper, prep, masking take and all have been good. The only item that did not work as expected that I won't order again is the paint gun handle for rattle cans. That did not go well. I will continue to trust auto touch up with all of my classic car reprints and fixes. PK
