Touch-Up Paint

I want to fix some rust spots on my, surprise, 91 Econoline (paint code MK). Has anyone tried eTouchup.com? Don't have painting equip. so I am thinking aerosol is the way to go. Should I expect this paint to really match. Any better suggestions? Is it worth it to pay a body shop to do it? The questions never stop. I live in Michigan, anyone do work out of their garage, that wants to weld and paint a van?



Thanks!!!!!

Best of luck.

You have paint 13 years old and most likely it has faded over the years. Look at your sill area where the sun hasn't been shining. Is the color the same as the exterior of your vehicle.

Also, I don't know anything about your paint company but even if they get their mix 100% correct, there is no way of telling if your orginal paint was 100% correct.
