Will 050 match my BMW if the paint has faded?

The kit is mixed to the 050 formula — the same code printed on your vehicle’s paint label — not colour-matched by eye. On panels that still carry their factory paint, that reproduces the original tone.

Where it will not match

  • Panels bleached by years of sun sit lighter than the factory formula. The kit reproduces the original colour, not the faded one.
  • A panel that has already been resprayed is no longer the factory colour, so the code will not describe it.
  • Metallic and pearl finishes are harder to blend across a large area than solid colours — they are at their best on chips and thin scratches.
  • Damage larger than a few centimetres, or down to bare metal over a wide area, is body-shop work.

Not worth it it is just a touch up paint worth 10 Bucks . You apply the paint then when you apply the corrector all the paint will come off not only the excess paint. It looks very sloppy. Won’t recommend it or buy it ag…

HAPPY UPDATE: Great color match, but unused paint dried in the unopened jar after a year

UPDATE: COLORNDRIVE answered my query and advised me to add some lacquer thinner to the dried paint to make it usable again. I did, and that worked fine! They also offered to replaced the dried paint if I paid shipping.…
