Can I use any touch up paint on my Honda?

To get a seamless repair, it’s essential to order Honda touch up paint that matches your vehicle’s OEM bodywork exactly. We recommend making sure you order custom mixed paint that’s specifically matched to your Honda paint colour code. Always order your vehicle repair paint from a trusted provider to ensure reliability and a high-quality product.

Is it possible to buff out car paint scratches?

Depending on the level of damage, you may be able to buff away light scuffs using our high-quality scratch remover. For deeper marks, however, the best repair solution is to use colour-matched touch up paint. When you order a paint repair kit from Chipex™ UK, we’ll provide everything you need to get rid of scuffs, scratches, road rash, and chips, restoring your Honda’s bodywork to pristine condition.

Is Chipex™ UK touch up paint difficult to use?

We’ve designed our touch up paint kits so that users of all experience levels can achieve high-quality results. Your kit comes with easy-to-follow instructions that guide you step by step. It also includes all the equipment you need, from the colour matched paint itself to blending and paint removal cloths and brushes.

Does Chipex™ UK paint require primer?

In most cases, you can apply your Honda touch up paint from Chipex™ UK directly to the scratched on chipped area. We’ve developed an all-in-one solution, so provided the damage doesn’t go right through to the substrate, you shouldn’t need a primer. If it has, then primer is recommended to ensure the paint adheres fully.

Should you wash your car before painting it?

When dealing with scratches, chips, and road rash on your Honda, we recommend cleaning the affected area to remove any dirt, dust, or grease. This will ensure the paint adheres and cures fully. However, you don’t necessarily need to carry out a full car wash. Make sure the area of damage has dried thoroughly before you start applying your touch up paint.

Do I need to add clear coat after using Honda touch up paint from Chipex™ UK?

There’s no need to apply a layer of clear coat after using Chipex™ UK touch up paint. The formula includes a patented lacquer, providing long-lasting protection against further chips, rust, and corrosion. With our all-in-one solutions, you get excellent coverage that lasts.

What happens if I make a mistake when applying Honda touch up paint?

Our touch up paint kits are designed to be beginner-friendly and provide excellent results every time. However, accidents can happen, and if you do get a smear or smudge in the wrong place, don’t worry. You can use the blending solution and paint removal cloth from your kit to clean away the excess before it dries.

My Honda has recently been painted. Can I use touch up paint on it?

We know that finding a scratch on your Honda can be frustrating, especially if it was recently resprayed or painted. However, we do recommend waiting at least one month from the respray before using Chipex™ UK touch up paint. This is to ensure that the first set of paint has dried and cured fully, and you get truly seamless results from your Honda touch up paint kit.

About the Honda CR-V

The Honda CR-V is Honda’s mid-size SUV and one of the most popular crossovers in the UK, produced since 1995 and now in its sixth generation. Available with petrol, diesel, and full hybrid (e:HEV) powertrains in five and seven-seat configurations, the CR-V is a practical family SUV known for Honda’s exceptional build quality and reliability record.

As a family SUV used on varied road surfaces, the CR-V sees stone chip damage on the front bumper and lower sills as a regular occurrence. Chipex stocks colour-matched touch up paint for every UK-market CR-V shade from the original Mk1 through to the current Mk6.

Honda CR-V Generations and Paint Code Location

The Honda CR-V has run across six main generations:

Mk1 (1995–2001) · Mk2 (2001–2006) · Mk3 (2006–2012) · Mk4 (2012–2017) · Mk5 (2017–2022) · Mk6 (2022–present)

Your Honda CR-V paint code is a three to four-character alphanumeric code. On Mk4, Mk5, and Mk6 models, the paint code sticker is inside the driver’s door jamb. On Mk3 and earlier models, the code may be in the driver’s door jamb or in the engine bay. Honda codes often include a colour-family prefix (NH, B, G, YR, R).

Common Honda CR-V Paint Issues

Lower sill and front bumper stone chips are the most frequent damage types – the CR-V’s SUV ride height exposes the lower body to road debris. Platinum White Pearl (NH883P) is the most popular CR-V colour on the Chipex platform. Crystal Black Pearl (NH731P) requires thin-coat application.

Lunar Silver Metallic (NH700M) is a classic CR-V colour across Mk3 and Mk4 generations and a straightforward metallic repair. Obsidian Blue Pearl (B589P) is a popular Mk5 shade requiring 2–3 thin coats with careful blending.
