Exterior Paint Color Question
Does anyone have a suggestion on touch up paint for a Winnebago View 24D? I have a new unit and there are several small chips in both the white & grey paint and I'd like to touch them up before they get ugly.
At Lichtsinn I was told Winnebago does not offer the small containers of touch up paint you can get with cars and they recommended I should order from Sikkens. I'm told that it's a cool grey J31 color by Sikkens but I can't find any way to confirm this. Plus with over 20 types of whites used by Mercedes Benz I don't know how to confirm the white used on the body. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I drove our coach to Car Quest, (now Advance Auto Parts), and they scanned the paint, mixed the exact color and made up touch up tubes as well as a spray can. Pretty slick.

I have full body paint and I got a complete touchup kit. I thought the only paint on the full body paint models is the white on the Mercedes chassis.

Some manufacturers put a "spec sheet" on the wall of a closet or cabinet that includes paint codes. Not sure if Winnebago does that, though.

Here are the Winnebago Paint Code Manuals: https://winnebagoind.com/resources/m...paintcodes.php
Winnebago has information, manuals and diagrams for every part that went in to making your motorhome available on their website. https://winnebagoind.com/product-res...ct-information

If you would like to see a list of all of your options and their codes, and the list of every part that went into your motorhome you can do the following: On the first link that I gave above and under the title Manuals and Diagrams, click on Parts Catalog-Motorized. On the next page, click on the red "Service Parts List" on the left. Enter the year of your unit and the last five digits of your unit's Serial Number (NOT the VIN number) and there you have the list of everything that went into constructing your motorhome. Fun!

I use PaintScratch.com. They have available any color you need contained in pens, touch-up bottles /brush, pints, qallons. If they do not list the color you need, you can fill out a color request form using the Winnebago paint code and they will match the paint color. I bought 3 colors from them using the color match request and they matched the color perfectly.

I had a selection of touch up paints included in my manuals case for my 2017G.
