Avoid expensive mistakes
When buying touch-up paint for your BMW, it is important to specify the correct color code. Touch-up paints are often specially mixed on order. Therefore, most paint stores do not offer returns because the paint is specifically tailored to your car. It is therefore cheapest to use the correct color code from the start.

F.A.Q
What's a color code?
A color code is a unique combination of numbers/letters that represents the paint color on your BMW. With the help of a color code, you can buy touch-up paint for your car. You can choose to buy both paint pens and spray paint with your color code. Please note that at Paintbase we do not sell paint; we only help you find the right color code (which is step 1 in the entire process). However, we will provide you with customized tips on where to buy the paint once you have the color code.
