Where to purchase touch up paint?
First, is it available at all?
I am looking for touch up paint for the painted wheels on a 1991 190, and also the gray lower cladding (black car). Figured I could find it cheaper, somewhere online, than the dealer.

Try http://www.paintscratch.com.
They may not be cheaper than dealer though. Plus they are more for body paint. Your request is rather specialized. Cladding requires paint formulated with flexitive the part is flexible.

Paint Scratch.com charges extra for the Flex Additive in the paint but it is available.
If you are looking to touch-up the painted wheels you may be better off with the Wurth paint products. They are apparently the OEM paint (or at least color) for most German made cars.

Thanks for the help. I ended up getting mine from Autovisual .
They actually uses a paint pen with detacheable nibs of all sizes. The standard is a microfine tip, designed to just put a pinprick of paint in a chip, so you don' have the glob. By the way, www.paintscratch.com, has a great resource for finding all of the paint codes on the Mercedes. Wheels, two tones, cladding, etc.
