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 Ford Tempo, 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 1981 Ford Tempo 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:

Bernard B, owner of a 2010 Ford F150 from Eagle Grove, IA

The touch-up paint I ordered surprised me. It matched my truck paint to the tee. Turned out to be a two person job. I held the bottle while the wife did the touch-up. Who knew you could do some bonding while using this product.

Mary D, owner of a 2011 Ford Mustang from Cary, NC

My car is perfect. I just got the touch up paint in case. It looks good in the bottle, and I can certainly wait to use it. My car is a 2011, but it is brand new...first owner, not a chip or scratch anywhere. Hoping to keep it that way, knowing I won't be able to. I bought the touch up and clear coat because I thought it would work perfectly.
