Audi Touch Up Paint — Mixed to Your Exact Code

On the vehicle data sticker in the trunk (floor or spare-tire well) or the service booklet, on the Lack-Nr. line.

Look for the Lack-Nr. line: an L and three more characters, and a two-character short code. LY9B / A2 is Brilliant Black, LY9C / T9 Ibis White.

Not directly: the paint code isn't in the VIN. A Audi dealer can look the code up from your VIN, or you can read it off the label described above. The finder also lists every Audi color by year and model.

A tri-coat gets its depth from two separate components: a color basecoat, then a translucent pearl mid-coat sprayed over it. They can't be combined in one can, so we supply both, each mixed for your exact code, and you finish with clear. The Audi tri-coats in our list include LS9R Glacier White Pearl Tricoat.

Yes — when you send us a sample. Mail us a painted part from the car (a fuel door, a mirror cap, a chip) and we match the paint to it and check it against your sample before it ships. If the mix doesn't match your sample, we re-mix it and ship it again free. Orders mixed from a paint code alone follow the factory formula, which can differ from paint that has faded or been resprayed, so they aren't covered — spray a test card before you paint. Full terms.

A door ding or bumper corner: one 6.7 oz aerosol. One can covers about 2 to 3 sq ft in two coats, so a fender takes three or four cans, a door four to six and a hood six to nine. Spraying a larger area with a gun? Run it through our coverage calculator.

Every can is mixed fresh to your code in South San Francisco and spray-out tested, and it ships within 2 business days.
