Paint colour

I have an 18” alloy wheel to use as a spare but the rim has a bit of a scuff mark. The cost of getting the wheel refurbished for such a small mark isn’t worth it so a touch up with a suitable paint would do the job. It’s a Disco Sport or Evoque wheel, but what colour?

It's a spare, throw it in the boot and forget about it. Whistle Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

Take the wheel to Jawel paints (or somewhere similar near to yourself) and they will colour match it.

We don’t have Jawel here in Norn Iron but I’ll try a local paint supplier. Good idea. Thanks.

In Australia all wheels have marks from kerbs. My 6 wheels have their fair share. Spend the money on something useful like sound proofing. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

In case anyone else is looking to touch up the odd scratch, the colour would seem to be 'Sparkle Silver' which is seemingly used across the Land Rover range. It is certainly a good match on my wheel and a small bottle, with a brush in the cap, is only a few quid on fleaBay.
