Does anyone know where I can get pearl touch-up paint? Dealership says they don't have it.

Call the guys at Clair Parts 1-800-354-5100

I had called them about touch up paint a long time ago, and they said they couldn't mail touch up paint because it classifies as hazerdous material, or something like that.

From one post:

"Pearl White touch-up paint (code LB09) for the 1998 or 1998.5 is available, but if your dealer looks for it in his paint book under 98, he won't find it. Look under 1999; it's the same paint code. A small tube isn't available, so you'll have to order the spray can set, which includes the white base coat, pearl effect coat, and clear coat. It's about $23. When I went to pick mine up and found it wasn't the small tube, which is what I thought I was ordering, I whined a bit, so the dealer gave the set to me at wholesale for $18."

Another says, "Audi pn is #LOA9.01"

And another, "The part number for the Pearl White touch-up paint kit is LS-0PM-0B9. The word "Magnolia" is used to describe this shade of pearl white."

Good luck.

I am planning on attempting to fix some rock chips in my hood and above my windsheild once the weather warms up. However, I hear pearl is very difficult to match. I would be interested to hear how well others have done. Any pics?

Thanks Chris, I'll tell the dealer this.

I have a '96 2.8 with the Pearl paint, and I was able to buy touch up paint at a local Audi dealer, but it seems 'thin'. It's kind of opaque, so it doesn't totally hide the chips the have gotten all the way through to metal. Good luck.

I have the same year car as you and same color. The paint doesn't really match, it seems a bit darker, I used it to paint my eyelids.
