Will 38F match my Subaru if the paint has faded?

The kit is mixed to the 38F 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.

Perfect Match - Lapis Blue Pearl

Had severe three foot long multiple scratches from side-swiping sharp rocks jutting from a stone wall. The two-step touch up process produced an outstanding result. The color match was perfect and it is impossible to tel…

Excellent match. Easy to apply

Match was near perfect. Taking time and doing several light coats works great

Perfect!

This kit was a perfect color match for a difficult color. Great quality to.

Does what it says!

This kit worked so well on 20 years of parking lot scrapes, gravel road dings and a car wash tape incident, that a co-worker said she thought I got a new car when I pulled up. It still shows when you look straight at it…

How it works

Three steps.
Zero blobs.

01

Clean

Wipe the chip, degrease the panel. Thirty seconds of prep is all it takes.

02

Apply

The precision tip fills the chip exactly — no drips, no brush marks, no blobs.

03

Ready

Seal and polish. The repair disappears into the factory finish.
