Touch up paint for the 95 E320
I just called the local Mercedes dealer to ask if they have the touch up paint for the bumper and molding and they said they only sell touch up paint to the metal body parts. Where can I find the touch up paint for the molding and bumpers? The S, SL and E all have the dark gray bumper and moldings. It is impossible they don't make it.
Any tips? |

Go to the body shop and ask them for the code or name, Tower paint will custom mix it in a spray can. Sometimes they will give you a little, the cladding on my 92 SEL is alto gray but there were 2 or 3 different grays and various colors. The spray can works great!

Your data plate by the radiator has the color code and paintscratch will then have the lower color that goes with it. Many auto paints shops will put paint in a spray can - lacquer or enamel - but you probably want lacquer.

It's often the same paint with a flexative additive.

Try www.paintscratch.com. They have all the info and paint you need.
I just received my order from them but have not tried it as yet. I have the white with gray trim. MB does carry the trim in small spray cans. It is $30+ for a 5oz. can including the clear coat. Your dealer did not know his business. Ed |

I had great luck with paintscratch.... a bit pricey...but a perfect match... i actually painted a fading roof on my sons 300e.... yeh, it's a 10 footer... but the car is 17 years old...
no sense gettting a good paint job while he is in college..it will just become a magnet for someone to steal or key...
