1LE wheel touch up paint - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

spaz302 · 11-05-2013, 07:45 AM

I recently discovered that one of my wheels has a nasty scrape that has exposed bare metal. Can anyone advise of touch-up paint or similar that they might have used to address this issue that matches the factory color? Appreciate any help, thx.

I haven't found anything. Guys on hear have done well by mixing black and clear coat. Look for zl1 repairs not 1le...there's just a lot more zl1 out there

You also get it done professionally for $100 or so.

Here's a link to my repair...

I just use black base (WA8555) and it looks great. Has just a little sheen, just like the wheels

Black sharpie makes a good temp fix.

After searching the ZL1 forum, this is what ive used and am happy with the color match:

Dupli-Color NGSF100 Black Exact-Match Touch-up Paint - 0.5 oz.

I got mine repaired for 50 dollars from at a restoration shop in Gainesville, FL (Front Line Collision & Restoration) The owner Jimmy does great work and you can't even tell there was ever curb rash on the rim

Yeah, these wheels show scratches and nicks easily. Ohhh wellll.

Gotta get some paint.

*Mr. Wyndham* · 11-16-2013, 11:28 PM

I believe there is a GM code for the paint on the wheels that dealer body-shops have access to. Tom Henry Chevrolet made me up a can of touch-up paint...it's a perfect match, with some of what appears to be light metallic fleck in the base paint.

Sadly, I scraped the wheels up on the ZL1 enough for me to notice. Once....I smacked one with a screwdriver on accident installing side marker lights.

Good to know there's some more easily-accesible options out there, though.

Plasti Dip looks close and can fill in gouges.

I cannot find this PX0076 paint with any type of search. Is anyone else having trouble?
