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 Ford Escort, 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 color code can be located in the driver side door jamb. Click here for the Ford paint code location chart and paint code image example.

Why The Two-Step Paint System?

Your 1978 Ford Escort 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:

Chris Myers, owner of a 1978 Ford from Frankfort, IN

Paint matched perfectly, which amazed me since this is a 34 year old car. All of the so called parts stores which deal in paint said it was not a good number, even tho I copied it directly from the mfg. door label. With AutomotiveTouchup it was no problem. So, save yourself alot of hassle and headache and deal with them in the first place. I know I will. Chris Myers

Ronald M, owner of a 2001 Ford F250 from Unicoi, TN

I ordered paint from a competitor and did some touch up on my truck. The match to existing paint color was terrible. I reordered from automotive touch up and what a match and this on a 12 year old vehicle. Great products and great service for all my future paint needs a+++. Ron Tennessee
