CLEAR COAT IS REQUIRED WITH THIS PAINT

To ensure your paint repair blends in perfectly, you'll need to apply a clear coat over the color coat. While AutomotiveTouchup paint products are custom mixed to perfectly match the color of your 1981 BMW (All Models), we use the same basecoat/clearcoat system as your factory specs. You can add a clear coat to your order on the next step. The paint code can be located underneath the hood near the front strut tower, on the firewall, or the passenger side wheel housing.

Why The Two-Step Paint System?

Your 1981 BMW (All Models) is painted at the factory with a high quality basecoat/clearcoat system. This two-step paint system consists of step one, the basecoat, which is your car’s actual color, and step two, the clearcoat, the specially formulated clear paint that protects the base color and provides the luster and deep shine your vehicle came with when new. AutomotiveTouchup products faithfully reproduce your vehicle manufacturer’s basecoat/clearcoat system.

Here's what our customers are saying about our Touch Up Paint:

Jerry A A, owner of a 1981 BMW from Troutman, NC

Excellent quality paint that matches the factory color perfectly. This is the second car I have used your paint on. I had great results on both. Thanks, Jerry

RJ, owner of a 2025 BMW 8-SERIES from CA

Color (skyscraper grey)was a poor match, too much silver. This was their bottled touch-up, it was well shaken and applied under optimal conditions. Wish I could post a pic.

FA, owner of a 2003 BMW 7-Series from Ypsilanti, MI

Product is great and the color matches very well. Product came on time and the color pen was very easy to use.
