Title: Finding gloss black wheel touch up
Post by: Mag_Pie on 17 October 2015, 09:17

I seem to have a chip on one of the black spokes, has anyone tried touching up the GTD rims before and found a good match from somewhere? I've seen someone on eBay that sells all sorts of touch ups for alloys and describes a lot as factory correct match. Part of me wonders if he's buying stuff from Halfords and sticking it in a pot himself lol.

Any black gloss will do.

This is what I have used for a couple of touch up jobs on the wheel. Pricey though

I doubt that as most of the paints on ebay are cheaper than Halfrauds stuff. :grin:
