First curbside scratch in my Black Appearance Package wheels. Anyone have a recommendation for touch up paint? Amazon has lots of options, but would like to find the closest match. Thank you in advance.

Bummer - I had an identical issue with my Fort Ranger XLT. Regretfully, neither the dealer or Ford Motor company was any help in leading me in the right direction with a paint code #. Solution, find out from your dealer which mobile paint service they use for touching up their new cars. I did the same, and after contacting the guy and agreeing on a convenient location for both of us to meet, not only did he do a terriffic job touching up one of my carbon gray wheel, he also provided me with a source where to purchase paint and a code #. Buy the way, he charged me a whopping $ 25.00! JK about the "whopping".

Did you every have any luck finding touch paint for the black wheels? I got a couple rock chips on mine, but I've been hesitant to try just any black paint given the satin/matte finish of these BAP wheels.

that paint code # would be a valuable share 😁

I'm sure that will work just fine. I ended up using something similar from Amazon. It was listed as touch up paint for Tesla matte black wheels, but it seemed to work okay on the Maverick's wheels. Definitely better than nothing.

Welp, I'm now in the club, too. Any "official" solutions for a scuff to the BAP wheels?

I think I read somewhere (here or Reddit) that the gloss black paint for 2025 Lariat &, BAP wheels is called Ford Absolute Black - Paint Code G1

It's also the used on the gloss black mirror housings

For me the quick fix is a black permanent sharpie. If I’m feeling fancy, some Testors semi gloss…
