Touch up paint

Have any of you bought aftermarket touch-up spray paint that might match the coach pictured. I want to call it tan & brown. I have some tree scratches to repair on the top quarter round.

I called APS Tower Paint Company in Appleton Wisconsin (800-779-6520), they matched my paint perfectly. I got the paint scheme codes from Fleetwood and ordered 2 spray cans of color and 1 spray can of clear cote. DW backed into a very small tree cracking the fiberglass, repair completed.

Call Tiffin parts with the paint codes. They sell touch-up paint very reasonably priced.

If yours is like mine the paint codes are on the entry door jam. If you order from Tiffin (I did) you need those codes. Tiffin also gave me a plastic container with touch-up paints when I bought the coach. It dried up but the codes were still there. I also got some paint sticks from Tiffin- they are very handy, almost like a small Q-tip with a tiny sponge at the tip, and these can touch up the smallest nicks. Comes in a tube of 10. Good luck!

Thank you all for the help. It's an Allegro Open road Red, 2011. I'll check the door jam for codes.

Tiffin doesn't have spray, only brush touch-up. I have too big of an area to brush but not big enough to mix up a pint in a spray gun. I'll try calling the company another poster suggested, It's APS Tower Paint.

I'll do it. Also, the lady at Tiffin said "you know you can go to Sherwin-Williams and get this don't you?". She didn't know if they offer spray cans though.

Sherwin Williams automotive paint stores can mix any of their paint in spray cans. Bought some in Dallas a couple years ago for our Newmar.

Phil Grey is correct. The Sherwin-Williams Automotive store near where I work crossed the Tiffin (BASF) paint codes and are making my cans. The lady at APS Tower Paint said that they can match "anything" if you have at least a 4"x4" sample to send them. I didn't have a sample so SW was my best choice. It'll be about $42 for the two cans and it'll be delivered to where I work. It doesn't get any better than that.
