Offered at any dealership. They come in a "pen" that has a rollerball tip applicator for scratches and the top unscrews to reveal a small "brush" for scrapes. My advice is to take your time with any repair & prep the area first & finish with successively fine buffing/polishing for a perfect finish.
Good luck

LL give me your color code or vin and I'll send you a tube for $12 shipped. At my dealer I sell it for $12.90
Unless its white. White uses a top coat and base coat so it costs twice as much. Darn that beautiful white

should have gotten a clear bra from day one,you will only get more chips and if you have a light
color car will need to fill in so the undercoat does not show.

best investment I made for the front of my car.

Be careful with white. My back bumper got a scratch and the pearl/clear-coat 2nd step was too brown to match the actual paint. Looks like crap (but better than the black scratch) until I decide to get it into a shop for a proper touch up.

someone made a post a while back, maybe a month or so, about a dealership (possibly in AZ) that offered discounts to NICO members. they had the touchup paint at a pretty decent price.

Sewell Infiniti of Dallas, Tx. Liq Pl touchup was $7.08 plus $7.71 shipping for a total $14.79. I thought the shipping was a little high but I live 120 miles from the nearest dealership.

I have a Blue Slate G37 Sedan, and the pillar behind the driver's side window was scratched at a car wash during a hand wax (I guess the dude dropped his rag and picked it back up with a pebble)...

The pillar is black, does anyone know about touch-up paint for this?

I'd recommend a shop re-paint the bumper. I did it with my 05 G35 coupe and it was better than factory! The paint was much harder than OEM and I didn't have another scratch/chip even after a year!

Had a similar mishap involving that black "A" pillar right behind the drivers window. I went to an auto store and got a gloss black paint stick. NO GOOD! The paint stick couldn't blend in with the rest of the pillar. AND for good reason! I took the G to a local auto body shop and they educated me as to what was required to fix that pillar. I thought that the gloss black surface was painted onto the metal pillar. Wrong! It turns out that there is a gloss black plastic/vinyl sheet that is applied over those metal "A" pillars. They are NOT painted. The auto body shop had to special order (of course) these "appliques" from the local Albuquerque Infiniti dealer. Took about a week for them to arrive. Wasn't a big deal to have one of their body specialists remove the old applique and apply the new one. Final cost (including the purchase of the applique) was $100. Looks brand new now and well worth the price.

By the bye. I have platinum graphite paint on my '09 G 37 sedan. I purchased a correct color paint stick from the Infiniti dealer to touch up a minor scrape that I have on my right side front bumper. The color of the platinum graphite paint stick is much too light (more of an aluminum color). For the color to match, must the surface be primed before hand? Is the fact that the undersurface is not metal but plastic causing the paint stick to not match the body color? Has anyone tried to touch up this platinum graphite with any success? :confused:
