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 1981 BMW 5-Series, 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 1981 BMW 5-Series 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.

Here's what our customers are saying about our Touch Up Paint:

G Miller, owner of a 2006 BMW X3 from New Market

I wish I would have known about Automotive Touchup sooner! I am extremely pleased with the color match. I even purchased paint from BMW, through my dealer and received a color too dark, a bad match. BMW customer service told me the mismatch was due to solar fading in my 6 year old X3. Automotive Touchup gave me a perfect color match! I will never buy touchup paint from any other source again, even from dealers!

Tracy D, owner of a 2011 BMW 3-Series from Orlando, FL

The very little I have used so far, it was good. Thanks
