CLEAR COAT IS REQUIRED WITH THIS PAINT

To ensure your paint repair blends in perfectly, you'll need to apply a clear coat over the color coat. While AutomotiveTouchup paint products are custom mixed to perfectly match the color of your 1978 BMW (All Models), we use the same basecoat/clearcoat system as your factory specs. You can add a clear coat to your order on the next step. The paint code can be located underneath the hood near the front strut tower, on the firewall, or the passenger side wheel housing.

Why The Two-Step Paint System?

Your 1978 BMW (All Models) is painted at the factory with a high quality basecoat/clearcoat system. This two-step paint system consists of step one, the basecoat, which is your car’s actual color, and step two, the clearcoat, the specially formulated clear paint that protects the base color and provides the luster and deep shine your vehicle came with when new. AutomotiveTouchup products faithfully reproduce your vehicle manufacturer’s basecoat/clearcoat system.

John G, owner of a 2006 BMW 3-Series from Springfield, OR

Ordered (with some hesitation) 2006 BMW - Black Sapphire Met. + Clear My wife & I was thrilled with the results and the exact match of the 5 year old original paint. Congratulations. Well done.

Norberth D, owner of a 2011 BMW X5 from San Jose, CA

Perfect paint, looks like factory sample (BMW Sapphire Black). Thank you - will let others know about your enterprise.

John M, owner of a 2006 BMW 6-Series from Port Alberni, Canada

I used the aerosol base coat clear coat on our Honda Pilot and BMW 650i. Outstanding! I never would have imagined such great results. I am a former Pro Painter and have an "Eagle Eye" when it comes to matching paint. I have ordered more colors to repair friends cars for them. Keep up the good work!
