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 1997 BMW 3-Series, 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 1997 BMW 3-Series 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:

Terry D, owner of a 1997 BMW 3-Series from Manassas, VA

The aerosol paint in BMW 309, Arctic Silver, is a perfect match on my 1997 318TI. Good coverage and easy to work with. One can was all that was needed for a new M3 style bumper. The paint took commercial clear coat with no problems, i.e., no chemical reaction.

Joseph G, owner of a 1997 BMW 3-Series from Jeannette, PA

I've used your paint several times in the past with GREAT results. This time on my old (1997) BMW with a lot of repaint on it, I knew that getting a good match would be difficult, if not impossible. In some places it is good and in other places it is not so good. It's the cars fault, not your product.

Robert M, owner of a 1997 BMW 3-Series from Washington, DC

Excellent price & color match. Excellent service...highly recommended.

Appreciated Customer, owner of a 1997 BMW 3-Series
