Touch-up paint for Dravit Grey Metallic?

Hello,

Does anyone have suggestions for touch-up paint for Dravit Grey Metallic? I was deciding between Dr. Colorchip and ColorNDrive. Any good options for this particular color?

It is on the front hood. About 1 cm in length for the larger one.

Dr. Colorchip’s touchup products have an excellent reputation in this forum. 👍🏻

You are correct, however I find it odd that they still don’t have Brooklyn Gray and Skyscraper Gray listed. Most especially BG which is a extremely popular color!

Another vote for Dr. Colorchip. I've used it for over a decade and it's the easiest solution, color match is always impeccable, and the finished product is much better than OEM touch up kits.

Just take your time and follow the instructions and you'll be amazed.
