How Long Does It Take for the Color to Match After Touch-Up Paint on a White Car?

After touch-up painting, it takes about one month for the color to match. If there is a color difference after painting, and the color appears darker within one month, it might be because the paint hasn't fully dried yet. However, if the color remains darker after a month, it indicates an incorrect color match, and you should visit a 4S shop for a respray. Here are some suggestions regarding car touch-up painting: 1. If the primer is exposed, touch-up painting is necessary to prevent rusting and accelerated corrosion of the steel panel. 2. There will inevitably be some color difference after touch-up painting, which is usually noticeable only under strong light. This is because the original car paint fades due to sun exposure, resulting in a lighter or changed color. Computer-mixed paint cannot perfectly match the faded paint but can only come very close. 3. Over time, the color difference will become less noticeable, but it will always remain to some extent.
