• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Finally, Touch up paint for the Spyders!

I found Orbital blue under the 2011 colors on their web page

I was all excited until I saw the Alloy Orange was listed as a gloss. Neither 2011 or 2013 models in this color are glossy. I'm guessing a matte finish is hard to reproduce in a touch-up size? :dontknow:
 
Yeah paint..!!

Thanks for keeping an eye out. Have seen many looking, now they have where to go..:2thumbs:
 
touch up paint

Just looking at touchup direct sight and when you order your color the clear coat comes in a matte or gloss what ever your color calls for.:yes:
 
Thanks for the info. My trailer has a few scratches (gouges) and I was just talking about getting touch up paint for it the other day. Like the Orbital Blue the Timeless Black does not appear on their 2010 info but it is on 2011.
 
I have a warranty problem on my hood, little pieces of paint are falling off along the crease so I am happy to have finally located touch up paint since BRP will not warranty paint beyond the date of sale. I touched it up and the color match is perfect there by saving me $400 for a new hood.

Regards,

Randy
 
Touchupdirect makes spray, pens and touch up bottles. I bough Pure
Magnesium and the color is right on. It dries in minutes and you can clear coat after an hour. www.touchupdirect.com

I ordered and received the pens for my Pearl White 2012 RT Limited. Haven't used them yet since my garage is not heated and the temps here have barely made it to 40 degrees for awhile. Directions on pens says for optimal results use at over 70 degrees...looks like a Summer job.

After applying base colour, then use a matte clear coat to remove the glossy finish.

Sorry, that's an error on our site...we do have the Alloy Orange and it is definitely a matte finish color. We'll adjust it online, but if you order it before we do get it changed, you will receive the appropriate matte finish.
 
Touch up Paint - They can ship to the UK

I Contacted touchupdirect to see if they can ship to the UK - See there Reply :-

Sir,

Yes, we sure do have Timeless Black available. We can ship touch-up jars, touch-up pens and half-pints, pints, and quarts to you. The only size we can't ship to you would be aerosol. The Timeless Black (BRP013) you mentioned under 2011 is the correct color. You can order online at www.TouchUpDirect.com. Let us know if you have any additional questions!


Thanks,

Touchupdirect should consider becoming a sponsor. I think they're going to be getting a lot of business from SpyderLovers. :clap:

If you buy the gloss color paint you can then cover it with a Matt clear coat.
 
We got ours. Quick shipping & easy to navigate website. One thing of note, it says for the Viper Red its for all model years, and it only lists Viper Red. The 08, 09, & 10 RS's came in red as well, but not Viper Red, so any RS ryders should be aware of this.
We recieved our touch up kit and it does look like a good match. We'll have to wait a few days, and we'll dig into actually using it on some of the scratches we got on our side panels when a coon got into the garage over the summer and climbed on some metal ramps that ended up falling on the side of Teds Red Sled. Made bunches of scratches, so hopefully this'll do the trick. I actually placed a 2nd order for the spray cans so I can go over the speaker grills and dash bezel, so we have an exact match, Wooo Hoo!

I did some sample chip repairs in my garage at 55 deg and it dried fast and hard. I am sure 70 is best but if these repairs only last until the days warm up I am happy (out of sight out of mind lol).
