What tools do I need for a Mercury touch up paint job?

mercury Touch Up Paint Tools including Polishing compound, sand paper, clearcoat, basecoat, primer and wax and grease remover wipe

To create the best looking coat for your vehicle, we recommend the following:

PRIMER, COLOR, AND CLEARCOAT - It goes without saying that you need paint to do a touch up paint job. Clearcoat provides a thin protective layer for your paint job while Primer is required for damage that has reached the original base material.

WAX AND GREASE REMOVER CLOTH - The wax and grease remover cloth is used to remove wax, grease, and contaminants before painting.

SANDPAPER - Wet-sanding the affected area removes rust and prepares the surface with a rough finish so the paint can stick better.

POLISHING COMPOUND - The polishing compound smooths everything out with a factory-grade finish.

These tools are all available with our Platinum kit but can be purchased separately on the TouchUpDirect website.

How to Find Your Mercury Paint Code

As a general rule, Mercury paint codes can be found on the driver side door edge or door jamb. You will find the paint code under the barcode of the VIN number sticker. It will be a string of two or more letters and numbers either next to "EXT PNT:" or above "EXTERIOR PAINT". Mercury Paint Code Examples: LS, FU/M6862, T8, 26/6185
