MG Touch Up Paint (103 OEM Colors)

About MG Paint

MG has a long history, so the paint depends on when your car was made. Older classics like the MGB often have "single-stage" paint that is soft and can fade or turn chalky over time. Modern MG models use a "basecoat and clearcoat" system with 103 unique colors in our catalog. These newer cars have a much harder outer layer that stays shiny longer but requires a bit more patience when you are fixing a scratch.

Application Tips

When you are painting your MG, the golden rule is to use very thin layers. If you put too much paint on at once, it might run or look bumpy. Most MG colors dry quickly, so you should wait about 10 to 20 minutes between each coat. If you have a modern metallic or "tri-coat" red, take your time to build the color slowly so it matches the rest of the car perfectly.

Quick Summary

• Paint Feel: Modern MG paint is Hard. This is great because it protects the car from the sun, but it means you need to spend a little more time sanding if you want a perfectly smooth finish.
• Best Advice: Always test your paint on a small, hidden spot first. This helps you get a feel for how the paint flows before you work on a big scratch.
• Pro Tip: When you apply the clearcoat, "float" it over the color. Don't press down hard with the brush or pen, or you might accidentally smear the color underneath.
