Chachabah16 · 06-21-2008, 08:36 AM

Hello all,

Other than the dealer, where can i buy touch-up paint? I did not see it at prius shop.com.

Thanks for the help...

I got my black at a Toyota dealer, but picked up some clearcoat at Wal-Mart. The selection may not be as complete as at dealer, but there seemed to be quite a bit there. You might also try the chain auto parts stores.

for $11, I would get the paint at the dealership. With each color, there are 10+ variations of color, flake, tint ect.

It probably doesn't do any good now, but I always ask the dealer for a bottle of touch-up paint when I buy my car. My Prius salesman agreed to give me one without batting an eye--in fact, due to a communication glitch between him and parts, they ended up each ordering me one (my color was out of stock) and gave me both.

Granted, this was two months ago, back in those heady days when you could actually deal. I'd still go with the official version; paint dries a different color than its application color, and you don't want to find out after the fact that the paint you used was a little off.

I got mine at the dealership and they gave it to me at cost. Only $7.

I got in the website, but I am just looking for a touchup paint for my Prius. Do I order the Basecoat or the Clearcoat type? Any help is appreciated.

My 2004 silver Prius came with touchup paint. That's why Prius costs $12,000 to $15,000 more over here!!
