Fiat Colour Match Touch Up Paint

How to repair a scratch on my Fiat?

To repair a scratch on your Fiat, you'll need a polishing compound like PaintNuts Scratch & Scuff Remover and a colour-matched touch-up pen. Start by cleaning the vehicle, then apply the polishing compound with a Microfiber cloth. This may be enough to fix minor scratches. 

If the scratch remains, clean the surface, shake the touch-up pen and apply thin layers of paint. Allow each layer to dry for 25 minutes. Let the final layer cure for 24 hours and then add lacquer and polish to blend it with the rest of the paintwork. For detailed instructions, refer to our step-by-step guide.

How do I apply Fiat touch-up paint?

Our Fiat colour-matched paint is available as a touch-up paint pen, bottle and brush or as car spray paint. The type of Fiat touch-up paint you choose will determine how you apply it. 

For the Fiat touch up pen, first ensure the surface is clean and dry. Shake the pen for 60 seconds and apply thin coats, squeezing the paint into the scratches. Let the paint dry for 10-25 minutes before adding another coat. Allow 24 hours for the pen to cure before polishing.

For the Fiat touch-up bottle & brush - Smooth the surface with sandpaper, then clean it and wipe it dry. If needed, apply primer. Shake the touch-up bottle for 2-3 minutes, test the colour in a small area, and then apply thin coats to the damaged spot. Let the paint dry for 15 minutes between coats and leave it to cure for 1 hour before adding lacquer or polishing.

For the Fiat touch-up spray paint - Smooth the surface, clean it thoroughly, and shake the aerosol for 2-3 minutes. Test the colour and spray pattern. If you’re happy with the colour, apply the aerosol paint in smooth, cross-coats from 250mm away. Let it dry for 15 minutes before a second coat. If you’re applying lacquer, wait 24 hours before applying. Clean the nozzle after use by spraying it upside-down.
