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

genesis 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 Genesis Paint Code?

How to Find Your Genesis Paint Code

To keep your Genesis looking brand new, you'll need to find your paint code. The color code for most Genesis models are easy to locate: simply look inside the driver side door jamb (or on the edge of the door) for the sticker containing your vehicle identification and paint information. On rare occasions, the sticker could be in the engine compartment, so you might have to take a second look under the hood. The color code is normally composed of two letters, sometimes accompanied by a number. If you're having trouble locating your paint code, simply contact us directly and any of our paint specialists will be happy to help.
