Default Inner Fairing Repair

What aftermarket paint mfr has a color that matches the unpainted inner fairing color. It’s not a flat paint, more satin but it’s definitely a paint layer on ABS. I have some fading and some places it’s just white. I’d like to find a color that can match perfectly or one that is close enough to blend. Any help would be appreciated, thank you!!!

It sounds like you want to just touch up a couple spots. Honestly, it would be better to just scuff the whole piece and paint it. You’ll never get spots to blend. I used some Duplicolor black with their satin (?) clear. It’s held up well for a few years now.

I have to agree paint the whole inner fairing. If you are like me you will never be happy with a touch up job.

My UC has a couple of places that have gone almost white.
This stuff makes it look plenty good enough for me.

It does have to be reapplied ahh 2-3 times a year.
If I come up with some other reason to pull the inner I'll have it repainted like the others in the past
