Yeah for Seattle Silver Rattle Can Touch Up Paint!
Written by dice3232 on 5/4/2011 at 02:15 pm

Thanks for the info, Dave! Gonna swing by my local Pep Boys and see if they have
any in stock. Got a worn heal spot on my lower right side behind the peg I need
to touch up.

for some Duplicolor touch up paint. I got a vial of HA 00950 Honda Frost White
NH538 and used that for an undercoat. It was a fair match for the main body
color by itself and an excellent base for both the pearl white and the metallic
grey.

Silver Metallic that I also got at Pep Boys. It's a *perfect* match for the
lower panels of our PC's. My crash bars were badly scratched and I did an under
coat of the frost white to cover the black plastic followed by the Seattle
Silver spray and then a couple of coats of Acrylic lacquer from a rattle can.
Ta-Da! Perfectly touched-up.
