Repairing Minor Paint Damage
In this manual: Exterior and Interior Care
~1min read
To repair minor paint defects on the body, purchase paint matching your vehicle's body color from an authorized Honda dealer.
The paint color code of your vehicle is shown on the plate located on the left door pillar. When ordering touch-up paint, provide your dealer with the paint color code of your vehicle.
Periodically inspect the vehicle body for chips or scratches in the paint. Repair any damage immediately, as it may later become a source of corrosion. Minor surface damage (small chips and scratches) can be repaired with touch-up paint of the correct color.
For more serious damage to the paint finish, contact a service station.
