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 Ford Explorer, 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 color code can be located in the driver side door jamb. Click here for the Ford paint code location chart and paint code image example.

Why The Two-Step Paint System?

Your 1997 Ford Explorer 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:

Leroy T, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from Green Valley, AZ

great service and prompt delivery

Patricia J, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from Virginia Beach, VA

I was very pleased with my interaction with your company. Once I found the color code for my touchup paint you all sent it to and it is perfect. I am using it a little at a time in order to build up the little dent, then I will apply the clear coat. The color was perfect I am very pleased with it.

Michael, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from New Jersey

Automotive Touchup paint works just great! Thank you for providing a high quality product to extend the life and look of my Ford Explorer!

Michael C, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from Murfreesboro, TN

Fantastic purchase of paint for new door handle for my beater, 97 Exploder. (Intentional misspelling) Matched perfectly and thanks for using UPS for shipping.

Carloz C, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from Tulsa, OK

They did a great job and I'm very satisfied with the results. The paint was amazing and everyone loved it. Great job!

Eileen O, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from Spring Valley, NY

Thank you so much. The color was perfect, I'm definitely going to buy more. Good service, nice packaging, good job!

Jason M, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from Willow Grove, PA

Thank you for another perfect match. You guys nail it every time, and I'll keep coming back.

Guy M, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from Canonsburg, PA

This is the second time ordering completely satisfied, thanks again. Fast shipping good paint.

Ronnie C, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from Grenada, MS

Great match for a 16 year old vehicle! Easiest way to get paint for aftermarket door handles that come only in black! Thanks for your products!

Maurice T, owner of a 1997 Ford Explorer from South Holland, IL

This company has the match for your vehicle to the T. I am so impressed with the results of my touch up, that I am preparing to buy more paint for my truck, and my car. I now want to paint both my vehicles since two of my doors on the truck aren't the same color anyway, and my car is getting a new bumper. I am skillful first of all, but the match up looks so good I can't resist the opportunity to start a new project. I know I can do a professional job, I have already purchased a spray gun for the job, and I'm investing in the future look of my truck and car. Will be happy to post before and after pics, but don't hold your breath, it won't be until the weather breaks again, see you in the future.
