Dodgy bodywork on the XF

Is the blue called kyanite?

If you take the three letter paint code to Halfords, they should be able to mix a can of aerosol paint for you. I`ve found the colour matches excellent and after cutting back, they blend in perfectly with the existing paint.

Try the parts dept of your local Jaguar dealers. If you give them the paint code (from the door pillar) they will supply touchup paint of an exact match. If its a small repair (mine was) then touchup paint may be all you need. Easier to use than spray paint!!

I get my spray can paint mixed at Halfords for about £16 a can. Just take your paint code (usually found on a plate in the front passenger door shut on the A pillar....three letters) to Halfords and they will do a special mix for you whilst you wait. In my experience the colour match has been excellent once the dry dust new paint edges have been flatted with P1200 or P1500 W&D paper. Polishing up with a rubbing compound has the job gleaming and well blended into the existing paintwork.
