Silver paint colour for Porsche alloys?

[Carlton]

I have a few minor stone chips on my 20-inch Carrera Sport wheels, these are mainly in the inner rim. Does any one know the name of the silver paint colour? so I can order a 'touch up pen' allowing me to seal the paint chips thus preventing the paint from blistering in the future.
Thank you.

Carlton. If you cannot get the paint try a close coloured "Nail Varnish" - not yours of course.

I have a sample in "gloss black" & it works a treat.

Looks nice with your "high heels" as well ...................

Carlton,

Here are some ideas from a recent post on the Cayman forum:

Have you asked the OPC? They probably sell the correct colour. Watched Jim of White Details on YouTube using a toothpick to gradually fill the chips (rather than the brush that usually comes with the touchup). So much more control, little by little. Worth a try.

Hi Kenny, thank you for the tip on the "Nail Varnish", this reminds me when I sprayed my sunglasses and plastic wheel trims the same colour as my VW polo. This is quite common now, but back in 1985 I was then a trendsetter!

Hi Jeff, thank you for the link I do have some 'BMW Arctic Silver' torch-up paint however it is far to light for my alloys. Further searching I think the paint may be 'Platinum Silver' or 'GT Silver' so I have ordered a sample of 'Platinum Silver' from e-bay to see how close it is.

Thank you Jaw911, for advice, Yes I have used a toothpick method myself. However I prefer to use an extremely fine stable hair modellers brush. I watched the 'White Details'video regarding the Lancia Integrale Hyena Zagato quite an unusual car! Its worth try contacting my local dealership to inform me on the paint colour.
