| Aug 6, 2019 at 23:29 | comment | added | Batman | @AndyP - thats interesting. Criggie - they do sell color matching vinyl for cars; works well for metalics on small areas vs touchup paint. Might be something to pursue. | |

| Aug 2, 2019 at 7:45 | comment | added | Andy P | @Batman My BMC Teamelite came with a tiny bottle of touch up paint. Agreed on the automotive paint though - have successfully used that on my charge cooker to touch up a couple of scrapes after I fell off on some oil | |

| Aug 1, 2019 at 21:55 | comment | added | Batman | You could try to look for automotive touchup (maybe go to a local body shop to see if they can find a similar color, or cut a sample and send it to a service that does touchup paints). Or check another (regular) paint supplier; their scanner machine (depending on type) might be able to match something (or possibly a swatch). Or, just let it be. As far as I know, no bicycle manufacturer makes touchup paints. | |
