Jaguar Touch Up Paint
The first Jaguar line of cars were the XK series, initially not planned to be mass-produced, the popularity of the body prompted the brand to head to the Coventry plant and start building them in large numbers. The first XK 120 could easily reach 120 mph and the constructor were ready to propose a real race car, the C-type. The Jaguar competitive type cars exhibited a lot of bite on the race-track as demonstrated by their multiple wins at Le Mans 24 Hours.
Jaguar cars were already iconic with their elongated curves, long nose and rounded front grille but it did not prevent the company from experiencing some difficulties. Eventually, Jaguar was purchased by competitors and changed hands multiple times. In 1990, American Ford purchased the British Jaguar along with Land Rover. The company quickly used this new influx of capital to modernize its production facilities but ultimately the new models ended up disappointing the customers. At long last, Ford let go of Jaguar in the midst of the 2008 financial crisis. Ironically enough, the buyer of the British car maker is once Indian colony Tata Motors.

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