Hi all,

I am a new Q45 owner! I want to buy a touch up paint for my 96 Q45, the color stated on the original sticker is Ivory Quartz, I am wondering is it the same as the Nissan's pearl white color?

Where can I buy this touch up paint? Should I go to the dealer or any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

If you only need a small quantity (1/2 oz.) it is available through the dealer and sold by the 3 digit paint code found on the placard on the DS firewall. Paid $15 in NorCal. Make sure the ball inside the tube will move when you shake it. If it's been sitting around for awhile the paint will get thick and the mixer ball will barely move, even after a couple of minutes of shaking. The first time I bought it the parts guy ordered it in to get a fresher bottle.

The only problem I see with this (not so much with white but darker colors) is the factory touch up paint may not match perfect...

Very nice looking Q - very clean - you should be proud.

Didn't I read somewhere that G50's had fluorine enhanced paint? I assume it protects against UV.

paint and scratch .com (something like that)

Made a couple cans of spray for me and it matched really good. I did part of the rear door and Q panel---high rec from me.
