CLEAR COAT IS REQUIRED WITH THIS PAINT

To ensure your paint repair blends in perfectly, you'll need to apply a clear coat over the color coat. While AutomotiveTouchup paint products are custom mixed to perfectly match the color of your 1979 Ford Explorer, we use the same basecoat/clearcoat system as your factory specs. You can add a clear coat to your order on the next step. The color code can be located in the driver side door jamb. Click here for the Ford paint code location chart and paint code image example.

Why The Two-Step Paint System?

Your 1979 Ford Explorer 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:

William H, owner of a 1979 Ford F150 from Gates, TN

I used your product to paint my door jambs as well as some interior areas. West Tennessee has crazy humid conditions, but I was patient and my interior turned out really nice. Had to make a second order but the paint matched up just fine. I will use AUTOMOTIVE TOUCH UP on my future projects. Thanks, One step closer!!

Steven M, owner of a 1978 Ford from Naugatuck, CT

Totally satisfied. The paint was a perfect match!
