TouchUpDirect 859 Mojave Silver Metallic Touch Up Paint Kit - Exact

In this review of the TouchUpDirect 859 Mojave Silver Metallic Compatible With Mercedes-Benz Exact Match Touch Up Paint Aerosol - Platinum Kit the bottom line is clear: this kit is for DIY owners who need a near-perfect color match and a complete set of materials to repair visible chips, small scratches, and faded spots. The reviewer found the Color Match Guarantee and the all-in-one kit contents the single biggest reason to choose it, since it removes the guesswork and includes primer, Colorcoat and Clearcoat plus prep and finishing tools for a professional-looking repair.

Key Features

• Exact color match: The Color Match Guarantee aims to replicate factory Mojave Silver Metallic for seamless repairs on compatible Mercedes-Benz panels.
• Complete aerosol kit: Includes primer, Colorcoat and Clearcoat so users can complete a multi-step repair without sourcing extra products.
• DIY friendly tools: Comes with Wax & Grease Remover Wipes, Tack Cloth, sandpaper, Polishing Compound and Masking Tape to simplify preparation and finishing.
• Made in USA and low VOC: The Colorcoat and Clearcoat are produced in the United States and designed to be low-VOC for a cleaner, eco-friendlier finish.
• Coverage guidance: Manufacturer guidance estimates 3-4 cans for hoods or trunk lids, 2-3 for bumpers and 1 for mirrors so buyers can plan quantities.
• Support materials: A test card and applicator instructions are included to help confirm match and technique before committing to the repair.

Who It's For

This kit is best for car owners, enthusiasts and independent DIYers who want to repair paint chips and small damaged areas themselves without paying for a body shop. The included primer, Colorcoat and Clearcoat plus prep and finishing tools make it a practical choice for anyone comfortable following multi-step repair instructions and using aerosol cans.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners needing full panel refinishes on badly damaged panels or buyers who expect perfect flawless factory resurfacing without some skill practice; a professional shop or spray booth will still outperform a DIY aerosol kit on large or complex repairs.
