Just like the title says someone keyed my car. Asshole. Where can I find touchup paint? Called gm and they said my car was painted medium gulf blue which isn't correct because my car is electric blue. The paint code is 10219020. Thanks guys.
 


if ya have comprehensive insurance it would be a no fault claim (rates dont go up) you just pay the deductable to get it fixed.

if ur touchin it up go to a bodyshop and get em to mix ya some in a small bottle. we do it here all the time.
 
How deep are the scratches. If they're not down to the metal a good body guy can get the scratched out without any paint.

In any event, do NOT use touch paint if the scratch(es) is/are that big. It'll look terrible. Use your insurance and get it done right.

these are the two most noticeable ones, where can i get touch up paint from? i tried one shop but they "said" they couldnt do it.
 
you can take your paint code to a dealership and get some..

wow you musta pissed someone off for that to happen@!
 
My car got keyed once and I about freaking lost it! I don't understand how somebody can get kicks out of doing something like that to someone else
 


wheres the paint code? i swear my car is electric blue right? they told me it was medium gulf blue and they don't carry it anymore.
 
at my last house, about 40 kids were walking down the street like a mob, curb to parked cars, hooting and yelling and after they moved by i looked out side and saw the car behind me had 2 nice scratches and thought, man that sucks, then i realized that the kids just keyed the whole block, wound up being 150 cars for blocks on end. i had two scratches, deep ones from bumper to bumper on my 03 truck, i was pissed.

cops had a nice time filling out all the reports too, he didn't look to happy.
 
underside of the deck lid,
Some dealerships still have paint, I was able to get a touch up pen the other day for my 05, there are some online retailers but ive never dealt with them. When i had to repaint my 99 i went to a Sherwin Williams auto (not sure if they are US as well)
 


Dude I have the same going from my fender all the way back....3 lines. I was so pissed when I found that. So if I have comprehensive insurance they will cover it and get it fixed for me? Just pay the deductable? I did not know that

sadly the deductible is more often more than the repair costs, like a 500 deductible and the repair cost is 350, your still paying for it.

If I saw that I would lose it! theres not anything you can really do when theres that many of them unless your packing some major heat or feel like mowing them over with a truck which would be very illegal but honestly people like that don't deserve to be on this earth with us

You should have called the cops and told them there is a mob of kids keying cars and they've just left after doing mine, you better get an officer to them before I do, and then cock a gun and hang up... they will get there quickly hahaha

On a side note, 90% of all dealerships, including the one I work at, have to send off for paint, usually takes 1-2 weeks to get it. Most don't have enough business to stock touch-up paint (usually expires before its sold). They should have looked it up by the vin# to find out what color it was painted factory, as long as it hasn't been painted some other color, what they order should match perfectly unless your paint is sunfaded

That being said, its usually a 5oz bottle, spray or brush, and those scratches prolly need to be looked at by a professional to get fixed, they look deep and being that long if you mess up at all it will be very noticable.

just my 2 pennies, good luck

theres a park 2 blocks from me thats packed with kids, by the time the cops came they said there was nothing they could really do, give me your info and you can pick up a report was all that was done, after all, they all look alike if ya know what i mean.

the cop said they had calls for 6 or 7 blocks worth of these kids and keyed cars, yet they still got away with it.
