Is this the right touch-up ?

Post by huy397 »

This is the touch-up I bought.2 bottles for $9.Paint code 40U, as Nova mentioned in another post, also evident in my glove-box sticker.I went to the dealer and they entered the VIN and spit out a match saying this is the one I need.

To answer the thread question--the paint should be dry to the touch within 1/2 to 1 hour, depending on the weather conditions (temperature, humidity, etc.). It should cure within a week. So don't wax the touched up areas for at least a week.
