The Ultimate Guide to Using Mazda’s Soul Red Touch Up Paint

If you own a Mazda with the stunning Soul Red paint color, chances are you want to keep it looking as flawless as possible. Unfortunately, chips and scratches are inevitable, but the good news is that you can easily touch them up with Mazda’s Soul Red touch up paint. With a little bit of time and effort, you can make those imperfections disappear and keep your Mazda looking brand new.

Before you begin the touch-up process, make sure you have the following items on hand:

– Mazda Soul Red touch up paint (which you can purchase from your local Mazda dealership or online)
– Fine tip paint brush or touch up pen
– Sandpaper
– Primer (if needed)
– Clear coat
– Microfiber cloth
– Isopropyl alcohol

Now that you have all the necessary supplies, follow these steps to touch up your Mazda’s Soul Red paint:

1. Clean the area: Start by thoroughly cleaning the affected area with soap and water to remove any dirt or debris. Once the area is clean, wipe it down with isopropyl alcohol to ensure a smooth application.

2. Sand the area: If the chip or scratch is deep, you may need to lightly sand the area to create a smooth surface for the touch-up paint to adhere to. Use a fine-grit sandpaper and be careful not to sand too aggressively.

3. Apply primer (if needed): If the scratch is deep enough to expose bare metal, you may need to apply a primer before applying the touch-up paint. Follow the instructions on the primer’s packaging and allow it to dry completely before moving on to the next step.

4. Apply the touch-up paint: Shake the touch-up paint bottle or pen well before applying. Use the fine tip brush or pen to carefully dab the paint onto the chip or scratch. Allow each layer to dry before applying the next one, and continue this process until the area is completely covered.

5. Apply clear coat: Once the touch-up paint is dry, apply a clear coat over the area to protect the paint and give it a glossy finish. Follow the instructions on the clear coat packaging and allow it to dry completely.

6. Buff and blend: Once the clear coat is dry, gently buff the area with a microfiber cloth to blend the touch-up paint with the surrounding paint. This will help to make the repair less noticeable and give your Mazda a seamless finish.

By following these steps, you can easily touch up chips and scratches on your Mazda’s Soul Red paint and keep your car looking flawless. Remember to take your time and be patient with the process to achieve the best results. With a little effort, your Mazda will look as good as new in no time.
