Touch-up paint for Warm Steel Metallic Matte

Ask for Ford 3Q4 and give the model year: paint suppliers mix by code, and some codes have several variants (this one also appears as 3Q4CXXG, 3Q4CXXK, 99J385A).

This is a matte or low-gloss variant: use a matte clear coat, never a gloss one, and expect to repaint a whole panel rather than polish a spot.

Read the touch-up paint guide before you start.
