C3 Corvette Touch-Up Paint

Classic car enthusiasts love third-generation (C3) Corvettes for their powerful performance and stunning appearance. Their design marked a complete departure from the previous C2 generation. C3 Corvettes had a more aggressive and aerodynamic body style, with slim midsections, contoured edges, pointed front ends, side-profile vents and large rally wheels.

Consumers loved the new C3’s shark-like look that stood out on the road. The C3 also offered drivers a thrilling driving experience, with stock models reaching over 300 horsepower. These unique characteristics make the C3 Corvette one of the most popular classic cars available today.

C3 Corvette owners know the importance of preserving their vehicle’s attractive appearance. At Top Flight Automotive, we have high-quality touch-up paint for 1968-1982 Corvettes. Use it for your next restoration project to restore your C3 to like-new condition.

5 Common Causes of Car Scratches

Whether you drive your C3 regularly or occasionally, minor paint damage is common. Chips, scratches and other blemishes can be caused by a range of factors, including:

1. Road Debris

Road debris such as small rocks, gravel and sticks can fly up and hit your car while you’re driving. When these small, loose objects are kicked up by vehicles traveling at fast speeds, they can hit your car with enough force to create dings and scratches.

2. Weather

Weather elements can be harsh on your car’s paint. During the winter months, hail and freezing rain can dent or scratch your vehicle. The salt used to treat icy roads can also damage your car’s paint. 

In the warmer months, the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays can cause car paint to become worn or faded. People who live in coastal areas may also experience tough water stains on their cars, as rain in those areas typically contains a higher salt content, making stains from precipitation harder to remove.

3. Abrasive Cleaners

Certain cleaning products contain harsh ingredients that can strip paint or remove protective sealants. Using a dry or dirty rag to clean your car can also cause tiny scratches because the small debris creates an abrasive surface.

4. Accidents

Accidents that lead to scratches can also happen when your car is parked. Another driver may open their car door too quickly and scratch yours in the process, or they may accidentally reverse into your car and leave marks on your bumper. Even a shopping cart can roll into your vehicle and leave a ding or scratch.

5. Intentional Damage

It’s also possible that someone may intentionally vandalize your car. Keying is one of the most common forms of car vandalism. When someone keys your car, they typically take a key or other sharp object and drag it across your paint while applying pressure, leaving a long scratch behind.
