Question Interior Paint

I have some scratches on some of the interior plastic pieces. Lexus said they don't have touch up paint for the interior and didn't even have color codes. Does anybody sell the paints for the interior parts?

I see people use regular vinyl spray paint, or touch up paint. The stuff that comes from Wal mart, Lowes, and Home Depot. Just make sure to bring a large piece of your Lexus interior to find which color fits.

I've been dragging that damn piece around to Home Depot, Wal-Mart, even Michael's and there are colors that are close but not the same, I would use something close but the color also matches the dash and I think it would look weird having two colors. I guess I'm just going to have to deal with weird.

SEM Toyota Landau Black if I'm not mistaken is a perfect match for that.

Just have Home Depot use their color matching machine and choose the type of paint you want. Request the sample size (8 oz) as it's cheap and easy.

Go to an autobody supply store.. most have all the sem paints and you should be able to match something there. If you have a spray gun they can probably make the color for you and you can paint it.

They even sell cans with custom colors and you pop a thing for the reducer and it mixes and you just spray.

Check it out those places they're usually pretty helpful.
