About this colour
Zinkgelb, paint code 1218
1218 Zinkgelb for Mercedes-Benz
If the label on your Mercedes-Benz reads 1218, the factory colour is Zinkgelb, a solid yellow, in use since 1986.
Where to find the code on a Mercedes-Benz: vehicle identification plate on the B-pillar, driver’s side; the paint code is printed on it. Step-by-step guide
Workshop systems may show it as TF5.
Solid colours blend easily: level a chip with small dots from the needle, and trace a scratch once with the brush. Light and bright shades cover primer slowly, so a deep chip needs two or three thin coats.
Every kit is mixed to code 1218 when you order. Basic is the 20 ml pen with needle and brush, Standard adds polish paste, and Complete adds polish paste, a microfibre cloth and a glove. Shipped within 24 hours, tracked and free worldwide.

Is this an exact colour match?
Yes. It is mixed to your official colour code, and every order is mixed by hand to order.
If your car's paint is older or faded, the result can vary slightly with age, sun exposure and surface condition.
What kind of damage is this best for?
It is best for small chips, scratches and scuffs.
Deeper damage down to bare metal or plastic may need extra preparation, such as primer or filler, for the cleanest result.
How do I use it, and do I need clear coat?
For most small repairs, apply the paint in thin coats and let each coat dry properly.
Clear coat is usually not needed for small chips and scratches when the paint is applied carefully.
For the best result, do not wash the repaired area for 24–48 hours.
