Hey i was wondering it anyone knew where you could get some touch up paints or if you are even able to touch up a car's paint after it has faded from 14 years of use?

thanks for the help

If you want an exact match for touching up scratches and such, try your local Mitsubishi dealer; If you want to restore the colour on the whole car [like if your red is looking pink, or the brilliant white isnt so brilliant] try giving it a good polish with T-Cut, or for more extreme measures try a motor factors that supplies the bodyshop industry, and get hold of some of the polishing compound they use to bring out the shine on new paint jobs [It's good stuff, believe me]

dont use the industrial-strength stuff too often tho, otherwise it'll eventually take the paint off completely. Just one go at this stuff should be enough, so long as you continue to look after it with more normal polish, wax, etc. :idea:
