When ordering touch-up paint from your Volvo retailer, make sure you have the right color. Use the paint code
indicated on the model plate. The plate is located on the passenger's side center door pillar.

Minor stone chips and scratches
Material:

Primer - can
Paint - touch-up pen
Brush
Masking tape

NOTE: When touching up the vehicle, it should be clean and dry. The surface temperature should be above 60° F (15°
C).
If the stone chip has not penetrated down to the metal and an undamaged layer of paint remains, the touch-up paint can
be applied as soon as the spot has been cleaned.

Deep scratches

Place a strip of masking tape over the damaged surface. Pull the tape off so that any loose flakes of paint adhere to

it.

Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it with a small brush. When the primer surface is dry, the paint can be applied

using a brush. Mix the paint thoroughly; apply several thin paint coats and let dry after each application.

If there is a longer scratch, you may want to protect surrounding paint by masking it off.
