Why The Two-Step Paint System?

Your 1978 Ford (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:

Thomas W, owner of a 1978 Ford from Dumas, TX

The paint was chipping off the fuel door on my 1978 Ford LTD. I took the fuel door off the car, sanded it down, fresh primer, 3 coats of Automotive Touchup paint, and 3 coats of Automotive Touchup clear coat, and you can't tell it was ever repaired. The color matched perfect. I'm very pleased with the products, and would definitely recommend this paint. Thank you!

Mark M, owner of a 1978 Ford from Parma, OH

Have ordered your paint products a half dozen times or more... each time the paint is a perfect match for my projects! Best paint product for my older cars. Great customer service!

Paul S, owner of a 1978 Ford from Tinley Park, IL

The service is great. They worked with me to get the shade of my color to match the factory paint on my car. I am very happy with the results.

Jay G, owner of a 1978 Ford from Jonesport, ME

As always your paint made this project easy. The color was spot on with the color on the children's car from 1951. Wish I could post a picture! Many Thanks.

Philip W, owner of a 1978 Ford from Fort Worth, TX

This Touch Up paint went Way Beyond my Expectations. I'm dead Serious. This paint matched better than I could have Ever Imagined. I was honestly Shocked at how Perfect it matched. By the time I finished filling in all my scratches and dings, you couldn't tell where they were at all. That's how Perfect this stuff was. That's the Only Reason why I'm writing this Review. This stuff is THAT GOOD!

Peter K, owner of a 1978 Ford from Newbury Park, CA

Have used several colors now and all have been excellent matches to original classic car colors. I have used, touch up, spray, and now quart size paints, all have met expectation. I have also used their sandpaper, prep, masking take and all have been good. The only item that did not work as expected that I won't order again is the paint gun handle for rattle cans. That did not go well. I will continue to trust auto touch up with all of my classic car reprints and fixes. PK

John C, owner of a 1978 Ford from College Point, NY

Color is exactly what I was looking for! Will be painting a 1/8 scale 1932 Ford three window coupe model! Thanks John

Blane M, owner of a 1978 Ford from Monroe, NC

Great product and service. Unbelievable color match! Thanks!

James , owner of a 1978 Ford from Collinsville, OK

This was my first order from Automotivetouchup and it was correct right out of the can with the very first spray. You system was easy to use and I had no trouble finding the color I needed and wanted. I will be telling all my friends and I will order again in the future.

Steven M, owner of a 1978 Ford from Naugatuck, CT

Totally satisfied. The paint was a perfect match!

Tom G, owner of a 1978 Ford from Wausau, WI

What great paints and products you have. I have used your paints on 4 of our cars/trucks. 2010 Subaru, 2006 Mazda, 2004 dodge Ram and the latest a 1978 ranchero. Without question I had a 100% match on all but the ranchero. Not your fault at all, did not have a paint code so I have to guess what paint color I need. Tried 1 didn't match just ordered my second try. Without question you will be the place I go for all my touch up paints. Thank you.

Michael G, owner of a 1978 Ford from Three Forks, MT

Great match, thank you.

Wade E, owner of a 1978 Ford from Gaylord, MN

I really like the paint it matched the original perfectly.

Dylan, owner of a 1978 Ford from Auburn, WA

I ordered the smallest available touch up sample. About the size of a nail polish bottle I would guess. I ordered this sample for my 1978 Ford Bronco to see what the original color looked like. It took a while to get the sample but I'm sure it's a pain to mix such a small amount. Good news is, when I've saved a bit more money, I'll be ordering a larger batch :). It might be in spray cans though. Either way, the paint came out good.

Larry H, owner of a 1978 Ford from Douglasville, GA

Your touch up paints have been a near perfect match for all of my old vehicles, including my original 65 Mustang.

Rodney R, owner of a 1978 Ford from Northville, MI

I received my order in a timely fashion, it was well boxed and arrived in good condition. I tested the paint on a piece of scrap metal, allowed it to dry and clear coated it, then compared it to my vehicle, the color on the vehicle is a hair darker than your product, but then it is a 1978 Ford vehicle, so I didn't expect an exact match. Other than that, the product is good quality and I would buy it again.

Loren P, owner of a 1978 Ford from Galesburg, IL

Automotive Touch Up is amazing. The ease of ordering is unbelievable. So easy. I have always been amazed by the availability of such obscure colors for old vehicles. The paint arrived lightning fast. Darn good match for a 37 year old car! Thank you. I am so glad you are there for us old car folks.

Tbirdnut, owner of a 1978 Ford from Orland Park, Il

I have been very satisfied with the service I have been getting. They try very hard to match the color of my car. I do highly recommend this company. Thanks a lot, Roy Shields

Chris Myers, owner of a 1978 Ford from Frankfort, IN

Paint matched perfectly, which amazed me since this is a 34 year old car. All of the so called parts stores which deal in paint said it was not a good number, even tho I copied it directly from the mfg. door label. With AutomotiveTouchup it was no problem. So, save yourself alot of hassle and headache and deal with them in the first place. I know I will. Chris Myers
