Custom-mixed touch-up paint

Mercedes-Benz Touch Up Paint β€” Mixed to Your Exact Code

Paint for your Mercedes-Benz, mixed to its factory paint code in South San Francisco and spray-out tested: a 6.7 oz aerosol for a chip or a scratch, or a quart to a gallon for a spray gun. It ships within 2 business days.

Aerosol $37.02Quart $176.80Half gallon $353.60Gallon $707.20

1K basecoat or 2K single-stage. A few formulas cost 15% or 20% more to mix, and a tri-coat is a 2-can set: the finder shows your color's price before you add it to the cart.

Where to find the paint code on a Mercedes-Benz

Early 2000s and newer: on the sticker on the driver's door jamb (the B-pillar), with the VIN. About 1964 to the mid-2000s: on a plate on the radiator support.

The code is normally three digits: 197 Obsidian Black Metallic, 149 Polar White, 775 Iridium Silver Metallic. A four-digit form such as 9197 is the same color: drop the extra digit.

The VIN does not contain the paint code, but a Mercedes-Benz dealer can look the code up from it. Can't find the label? The finder lists every Mercedes-Benz color by year and model.

Not in the list? The finder has every Mercedes-Benz color on file. Find it by year and model.

Color-match guarantee

Send us a painted part from your Mercedes-Benz (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.

Paint mixed from a code alone follows the factory formula, which can differ from paint that has faded or been resprayed, so it isn't covered: spray a test card before you paint. Full terms.

Mercedes-Benz touch-up paint β€” FAQ

Where is the paint code on a Mercedes-Benz?

On the sticker on the driver's door jamb (older: a plate on the radiator support): three digits, such as 197.

How do I read a Mercedes-Benz paint code?

The code is normally three digits: 197 Obsidian Black Metallic, 149 Polar White, 775 Iridium Silver Metallic. A four-digit form such as 9197 is the same color: drop the extra digit.

Can you get my Mercedes-Benz color from the VIN?

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

Why do Mercedes-Benz tri-coat colors come as two cans?

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 Mercedes-Benz tri-coats in our list include 799 Diamond White Tricoat, 885 Opal White Tricoat, 9885 White Bright Tricoat.

Is the color match guaranteed?

Yes β€” 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 β€” spray a test card before you paint. Full terms.

How much paint do I need?

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.

When does custom-mixed paint ship?

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