6204 touch-up paint

#1 Post by Joe Ferris »

Has anyone found a quality touch-up paint for Elfenbein 6204/738 Ivory. Would like to correct a couple small chips and hoping to buy something proven to match and work well.

Thanks!

Joe, your best bet might be to take one of your door hinge panels (the metal panel just in front of the door) to a quality paint supplier and have them scan it and mix you some touch-up paint.
Some days it's just not worth chewing through the restraints.....

Glasuirt still has the formula for the 6204 ELFENBEIN blend in the data base and list the formula. You can get a color match off the gas filler or the door jam, then compare the scan formula, with the one from the Glasurit Line 22 on the data list.

On the link below, put in the paint code and Porsche in the page data and print the blend.

I always do it the way Wes suggests. The colors are never the same as the formula. Maybe "Never" is too strong. .......Jim.
