Touch Up Paint

Capacity: 12ml

Designed specifically for small stone chip repairs.

Our Tesla Touch-Up Paint is specially formulated for small paintwork imperfections like stone chips. The paint is intentionally thin, allowing for greater control and precision. This helps you avoid overapplication, which can lead to drips or uneven surfaces.

Multiple light layers can be applied to gradually build up the colour and achieve the best match to your Tesla’s original paint. Each stone chip is unique in size and depth, so this flexible approach gives better, more natural-looking results. Thicker paint would be harder to control and may not blend well.

Important: This product is not suitable for large scratches or bodywork repairs. Heavily damaged areas may require professional attention.

Please ensure you have thoroughly reviewed the “How to Use Touch-Up Paint” guide below before placing your order.

Please note: If you view the paint from the bottom of the container, it may appear darker or may not match your car’s body colour. This is because pigment particles naturally settle over time. To ensure even colour and consistency, always shake the bottle thoroughly before use and follow the instructions below carefully.

This touch-up paint is the base colour coat and should be applied in several thin layers. The factory finish has a separate clear coat applied on top as a protective layer.

Because of this, the repaired area may look slightly different in terms of gloss, reflection, or when viewed from different angles, compared to your original paint. This is normal, as the touch-up only covers the colour layer.

Caution: The touch up paint bottle has a cap top and a brush applicator. Hold upright and open slowly to avoid spills.

Step 1 – Shake

1. Shake the bottle thoroughly for at least 1 minute.
2. Unscrew the lid to access the brush, which is attached to the cap.
3. Ensure to check the colour match before proceeding. Test in a discreet area and allow it to dry for 10 minutes, as colours may appear different in the bottle, when wet, or if applied incorrectly.

Step 2 – Prepare

1. The surface must be clean and dry – make sure all wax, polish and dust is removed.
2. If you have a deep chip or if you can see metal or plastic we recommend using a primer first.
3. If rust is present, we suggest a rust treatment as well.

Step 3 – Paint

1. Using the brush apply thin and light coats in smooth strokes.
2. Leave paint to dry for 10-25 minutes before applying a second coat if required.
3. Leave paint to cure for 24 hours till hardened before applying lacquer or polishing.
4. If the application is not correct or satisfactory, use a wet damp cloth to wipe it off immediately.

Additional Tip: Before using the touch-up paint, watch some YouTube tutorials to understand how to use the brush effectively and set realistic expectations. This is a base paint, so the finish may not match the factory high-gloss look, which comes from a clear coat sprayed over the paint. We recommend it only for small stone chip repairs.
