Touch up paint

[TSCHANNE]

Anybody know where I can get a small bottle of touch up paint for my 05 Speedmaster? Mine is the Blue/Black tank and I need the blue color.

A previous owner nicked the tank on the exact same spots up front and low on the tank. It looks like it was hit by a wrench when someone was installing new risers. It's barely noticeable to anyone but me but I still see it. I did a Google search but came up empty.

Anybody know?

Google Colorite Motorcycle Paint and that may get you what you want.

Use a Vin checker (a couple were mentioned in a recent thread) to find out what specific blue was used.

That's a good site, Rocky. They even do most of the research for us. They mention the claret (wine) color for my bike, but don't have is available.

I checked Colorite and the only model they show for an 05
is a Sprint ST and the color for that model is Caspian blue. The color chip looks close but I don't know if it's the same.

The Speedmaster is only showing up as an available model for 07 on and the only two colors available are red and black.

I'll look into searching by VIN. Maybe a call to an actual Triumph dealer.

Here is one recommended site for checking VIN:

I called a local Triumph dealer and was told the paint is no longer available

Looks like I'll have to live with the "almost invisible" scratches.

And as far as I can see the VIN # doesn't give a paint color or code.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I know body shops can match paint by scanning and mix up a spray can or maybe even touch up pen, but not cheap. Can spray it into a small container and use model brush to touch up maybe.

I use touchup direct. I bought a kit (primer, base coat and clear coat) for my 2008 T100 and it matched up perfect.

Thanks, Glenn. That is a good, useful site. You have the claret color also, don't you?

I do. I had a few what I call small dig marks on the front fender. This touchup did not solve the problem but it made it less conspicuous. The only thing that will make it go away is a paint and body man.
