Anyone found Phoenix Orange touch up paint? Where?
I own a 2019 RTL that is in the Phoenix Orange color and have multiple rock chips in the paint on the Frunk. I have looked everywhere for touch up paint to match with no success. I did find one company that claimed a match but the paint delivered was so far off that it could not be used. I know that color was used on both the RT and the F3 models for several years. Has anyone found matching touch up paint and if so where can I order it? Your help would be appreciated. I like to keep my bike pristine and want to cover up those chips.
Thanks.

You did not say where you try to get the matching paint from.

Just out of curiosity, what colour is Phoenix Orange as opposed to the Cognac (I call it burnt copper) that the ‘14’s have? The high temperature engine paints cover the Cognac....is there one that will do the Phoenix Orange? Try looking “outside the box” for it.

I was hoping to find someone that had successfully purchased Phoenix Orange touch up paint. I am not home where my supplies or I would post the name of the company selling the paint that did not match. There is so much metallic flec in the paint that it is hard to match. I even tried going to an automotive paint store and had them mix a match like they would for a body shop and that did not work either. When I get home I will post the name of the supplier that claimed to have a match based on color number.
Thanks,

Colorite does not have the paint.
Try Pierre at canamspyderaccessories.com That is where I got mine when I bought a color matched dash for my 2019 F3L, I just sold the bike and gave the paint to the new owner.

Touch up paint

I ordered a touch up kit from a company called “ScratchesHappens” . I think my 2019 F3L orange color is called Phoenix Orange Metallic.

I got back home to my shop and ScratchesHappen Phoenix Orange Metallic is what I bought and do not think matches. Maybe it is my fault for not stirring the paint well enough in the bottle. With the amount of metallic in the paint it may be really sensitive to settling out of the ingredients. I will try that to see if that helps since others report that it is a match. Thanks for the input.

From experience - the more the metallic the paint is the more mixing it will need .....good luck .... Mike
