1964 Audi Touch Up Paint (4 OEM Colors)

The 1964 Audi Vibe

In 1964, Audi was in that weird, transitional "dawn of the four rings" phase where the cars were still shedding their DKW skin and looking for an identity. Whether you were rocking a two-stroke F102 or one of the early four-cylinder prototypes, these cars were built for a Europe that was finally getting its groove back. The palette was pure Continental class-no neon screams here. We've focused our database on the true survivors of the era, the shades that defined the German roadside: Birch Green, Dove Blue, Mouse Gray, and Pearl White. These weren't just colors; they were a statement of precision.

Paint Health Check

Here's the cold truth from the booth: your '64 is living in the Single Stage Era. Back then, we didn't hide the color under a plastic-wrap layer of clear coat. The pigment and the protection were one and the same-a thick, solvent-heavy slab of enamel. It looked deep and rich when it left the factory, but decades of sun and oxygen have likely turned that Dove Blue into a "Chalky Sky" disaster. This is classic **Oxidation**. When those oils dry out, the paint literally starts to die on the vine, leaving a white, powdery residue that makes the car look like it's been parked in a flour mill.

Restoration Tip

If you're touching up a '64, remember that you're working with a "living" finish. You can't just spray and walk away. Before you even think about applying fresh paint, you need to "exfoliate" that dead, oxidized layer with a light rubbing compound to find the stable color underneath. Once you've made your repair, here is the golden rule: It needs wax or it dies. Without a clear coat to take the hits, a high-quality carnauba wax is the only thing standing between your Birch Green and total atmospheric evaporation. Feed the paint, seal the pores, and keep it out of the midday sun.
