Default paint

i have an 88 legend ls and have noticed that some of the paint is chiping off. they're only tiny spots, about the size of a dot, but they still bother me. can i get touch up paint from an acura dealer or is it cheaper anywhere else?

Your local Acura dealer will still be able to get you the touch up paint. They just may not have any in stock.

its only 5 bucks. make sure you clean the spots really well before you put the paint on. its going to look like crap though. try putting paint down in layers so it comes above the layer of the rest of the paint. LIGHTLY sand it with 3000 grit sandpaper then use heavy - medium - light compounds then wax it.
that will be your best bet.
