Title: Touch Up Paint for 2009 Pearl White GV?
Post by: Hurricane*Sara on April 03, 2012, 11:50:14 PM

Anyone know where to buy this?  I'd like to have some on hand.  I know I'll need it in the future.  Actually, I hope I buy some and it rots in the container from nonuse, but...

Just get a plain white at any autoparts store,  Walmart, etc.
Even if there are several whites,  pick out what you think is closest.
You can use Enamel or Lacquer.  Be sure to use a Primer though.
Cost around $3.68 for the paint and $4-5 for a good filler primer.

If you ride as hard and much as I do,  small mismatches are
not noticible to the general public.

Hello Sara,

I don't know if your 2009 Pearl White is the same as the 2011 Pearl White used on the Downtown model.  If it is and you ever need to paint an entire body panel the following link discusses my Pearl White paint matching experience:
