Personally I'd just remove all doubt and buy from the dealer.

You may be right.. just sent my sales guy an email to see if they have velocity blue in stock

Like he said. I can’t speak to Amazon but this is not your last paint dilemma. Get the Lacquer Touch-up Paint from Motorcraft.

I bought my Maverick used from a dealership and they put a new tube of paint in my glove box as a caveat I guess. Haven’t had to use it yet but I’m sure i will.

Just get the original color match and be assured it will blend in with compound and orbital sander.

I would suggest not using a paint pen but rather getting the touch up paint separately so that you can use a small brush, toothpick, applicator- that's probably a highly visible spot and paint pens tend to flow excessively. You want a bunch of little layers not one massive glob.

https://scratcheshappen.com/ - I used these and the paint dried tonan exact match as far as I can tell.

I bought an Alto Blue from Ford, perfect match. Not worth trying to save a $$ and getting a colour miss match

Another reason to buy the OEM. It includes both pen and brush not to mention the clear coat which utilizes a sponge applicator.

Get it from the dealer, it's basically the same price and it matches perfectly.

I've bought 2 FoMoCo paint pens on amazon. One for my Satin silver '06 Mustang and one for my race red "13 Mustang. Both matched perfect. Ball point on one end, worked perfect for small chips like yours. Just pressed the ball down and it filled the chip great, even level. Other end had a brush and clear coat. Kinda worried about matching HPR but when its time I'll do it again.

I can attest to this product. I bought the carbonized gray touch up from Scratches Happen on Amazon and it's terrific.

I've been parts at dealerships for 50 years now, and three things to remember!
Do not leave the touch up paint in the glove box. Extreme temperatures hot and cold are bad for the paint. Leaking paint is bad for the glove box and it's contents.
Always try to get the OEM paint!
If you have a car like a Volvo or Kia, where the don't supply all the colors, you can buy different size containers from
AUTOMOTIVETOUCHUP.COM.
They supply paint for just about every car and year!

When my truck was delivered I bought a touch-up pen from Dealer. So far haven't had to use it.

They’re so cheap from the dealer and will match exactly. The pen is excellent, it has two different applicators as well as a cleaning tip to prep the area.

Factory touch up has always been right on. Even in HPR.
