PostmanPat Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Need a bit of help, please. Can anyone point me to a shop/ outlet where they specialise in bits and pieces for vehicles, including what I really need, which is a touch up paint for a couple of stone nicks on my Mazda. I know theres one lower ground floor Airport Plaza, but they dont have my colour, and (amazingly!?) the main agent/ dealer for Mazda doent even stock these little essential items, nor do places like Homepro. Any guidance gratefully received, thanks everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilrob Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 I agree with True Blue, there is such a shop in KSK. I also can't remember precisely where it is in the mall, but if you walk around you are bound to find it. I have had good luck mixing them to get the precise shade I wanted. For example, to get a light metallic green, I mixed dark green, metallic silver and a little white. With a little trial and error, trying it out on a hidden area under the bonnet, I got a really good match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktm jeff Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Get the paint code from VIN (ID ) plate , and try FORD dealer , owner of MAZDA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilrob Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Get the paint code from VIN (ID ) plate , and try FORD dealer , owner of MAZDA.I don't think that will help. Ford does not own Mazda and never did. The most stake Ford ever held was 33% and Ford's current stake in Mazda is only about 3%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainman34014 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 No Mitsubishi dealer in Chiang Mai keeps touch up sticks. When i asked why because they are missing a money making opportunity i was told ''Thai people don't work on their own cars, they get someone else to do it '' . So true; as with just about anything else...DIY....never heard of it ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeichen Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Did you know that nail polish is perfect for repairing small nicks in paint for automobiles. The colors are so varied that they often match perfectly. Much cheaper than buffing out an entire panel to repair one small dent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaamNaam Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Find yourself a panel shop and ask the painters if they can mix some up for you. If you buy it over the counter the chances of it matching are very slim. You may need an interpreter for this adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
