Description
1K Basecoat spray cans are perfect for touch ups, spot repairs, and small paint jobs. Every spray can is custom mixed to your vehicle's OEM paint code.
This can is custom mixed to match Subaru factory colour Metal Gray (paint code 45A).
Important: Basecoat is a colour coat only. It requires a clearcoat over the top for a glossy finish and UV protection. Without a clear, the basecoat will stay flat and fade over time.
White Pearl Colours: If your colour is a white pearl, you must purchase 2 spray cans, 1 ground coat and 1 pearl coat. If only 1 can is ordered for a white pearl colour, we will contact you regarding your order.
Size: 400ml
Type: 1K Basecoat aerosol (colour coat only)
Over coat with: 1K or 2K Clearcoat aerosol
