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 1978 Mercury (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 color code can be located in the driver side door jamb. Click here for a Mercury paint code location diagram and label example.

Why The Two-Step Paint System?

Your 1978 Mercury (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:

Evan S, owner of a 1978 Mercury from Canton, GA

The paint color match for my original 1978 Mercury Marquis is 95.0% and near perfect.

Tom G, owner of a 1977 Mercury from Chambersburg, PA

The color was a perfect match.

Thomas K, owner of a 1966 Mercury from Valley City , OH

I am super pleased with the convenience of the touch up paint, and the awesome match of the Jamaican yellow that I have on my 66 Mercury Cyclone. I ordered a aerosol can to paint the rockers and clearcoat and I was nervous at first as anyone would be when using a touch up paint on such a rare Classic. It worked out wonderfully and I would not hesitate to even order a can with enough to paint the whole car if that was needed. Hat's off to the team at Automotive touch up!!
