White touch up paint MG5

[Jomarkh]

Hi, has anyone bought any touch up pens? I have a couple of stone chips that need attention, any recommendations?

Hiya, I ordered from BuckinghamStanley MG dealer on eBay and arrived quickly plus it seems a great match

 

[Jomarkh]

I was going to pop into Richmond MG just wanted to see if it was less than £19 anywhere

I got one in Piccadilly blue £17 from the dealership but it seams to be a darker blue

Piccadilly blue was not an available colour choice in the U.K. for the ZS EV.
The launch blue colour that MG choose to use in the U.K. for the ZSEV was a very light shade of blue called “Pimlico Blue”.
The colour choices for the ZS EV only numbered four.
Solid White - No extra cost.
Black Pearl - metallic paint £545.
Pimlico Blue - metallic paint £545
Dynamic Red - Tri coat paint £695.
These where the paint prices at launch.
The darker blue colour available on the earlier ZS ICE model around the same time, was called “Lazer Blue” another metallic paint finish.
A much darker shade of blue than the lighter shade of “Pimlico” blue.
I think Piccadilly blue is shade only available on the newer face lift models on ICE versions.
You can be sure of getting the correct touch up pen for your car, by grabbing the paint code from the sticker that is posted to the “B” post on the O/S.
Open the drivers door, then look for the black and silver sticker that is located below catch that is fixed to “B” post frame of the car.
Here is a shot of my paint code.

5RSJ is Dynamic Red ( Tri-Coat ).

Hi,
Thank you but it was for an MG5 so maybe they did a different blue?

Okay, stand corrected - sorry for that !.
Yeah - The MG5 had a different shade of metallic blue over the ZS EV.
Four colour options once again.
I guess the ident plate with the colour code will be locatted in the same place ?.

Does anyone know whether the blue listed on ebay as JSH Victoria Blue is actually the same as Picadilly Blue as on the MG5? The paint code on the door pillar of my car is 5JSH, but i am hoving great difficulty in locating Piccadilly Blue. I suppose I will have to go back to my dealer!

Hi, if you have the service package you get an MG discount. I couldn't get it cheaper on eBay.

That looks handy - back to my dealer it is. Thank you to all who have contributed replies to my question.

Guess I’m buying the (PBC) Pearl Black - 10208638, my daughter just opened the door on my week old car into a stone chipped wall. You’ve got to laugh

I hope she's had her mobile phone taken off her for a month.

she’s only 6 and made me a card to say sorry - I’m a bit gutted but what can you do

6, ok she can be forgiven.


Just keep reminding her until she's 20

Cast it up at the wedding speech

What can you say indeed - bless her heart for the card !.
Gutting I know, but this time next week the touch up will be done and it all will be in the past.
It could have been MUCH worse.
Life is too short my friend.
Paint already on order I guess @biffo
Can you get a bit of primmer on the chips for now ?.
Top Tip - Try using wooden cocktail sticks to apply the paint, much better control than a paint brush.

I’ll be down the dealer on Monday morning to collect some - hopefully it’ll be in stock. Might pop to Halfords tomorrow and see about primer though. Cocktail sticks sounds ideal
