Amazing Thailand Mazda cant supply touch up paint or even repsray colors

[liddelljohn]

need some True Red color for my Mazda 2 but Mazda Thailand and 5 independent color shops i have contacted cant supply it ,,

I have ordered it from USA but its amazing that the correct color is not available for a car built and sold in Thailand by the thousands

Respray colours are mixed via motor manufactures information provided by a formula using basic colours. Any paint shop can mix any colour for any car.

Yes find a paint shop this involves using your eyes or asking around they will mix colour 1/2 ltr approx 400 baht the good ones will want a sample ie fuel flap so they can tint by eye to exact match , mixing just to manufacturers specs can result in lots of off colour panels

Guess I am lucky as the Korat Mazda dealer has their own paint shop.

All rides have a paint "key" number on the chassis/frame This "key"can be given to a paint mix shop (not a spray shop) to provide any amount of paint for that vehicle.

Check it's actually a mazda colour. My Ford Ranger's Gun metallic blue is a mazda colour.
