Default Touch up paint
I have a friend who owns a red 64 vette. Can anyone tell me of a source for touch up paint. It has a small chip that she wants to touch up. Thanks in advance.

This person sells touch up paint to all the major Corvette dealers and will also sell direct. Call and order and it will be put in the mail usually the same day. Has all colors from 1958-2005.

Andrea Harris 248 363-0288. Make sure you tell her that Chuck (aka Dad) recommended her.

I got some touch up paint from Eklers, and it matched the Silver Pearl on my 65 very well.

I bought from PEP BOYS, in spray and bottle. They have a chart to your color, and they are perfect matches.
