Hi, Does anyone know where I can get some touch-up paint for my caravan (Sprite Alpine 2015 model). (I managed to get a couple of small scratches whilst on holiday.)
Also any tips on how to get the best finish possible when applying the paint.
Thanks
Geoff

Hubby looked up on Google what paint it was and it was a fiat colour but you must check to make sure then you can get it from Halfords

Thanks all for you advice. I came across a company call Auto Custom Paint who appear to sell touch-up paint for caravans. Looking at their web-site it would appear that I want Shade 9451 - Sprite Caravans Magnolia-White

Has anyone had any dealings with this company, is this just the same as the Fiat white 249 mentioned above?

Maybe a silly question, but why don't caravan manufacturers put the colour/shade in the owners manual?

N.B. I'd emailed the company that I originally bought the caravan from (new)asking them for the colour, and whether they sell touch-up paint - didn't even get a response - so much for after sales support.
