Rim/wheel paint color code to touch-up scuffs/small scratches

Hi,

I know this question it’s been around somewhere, but so far I couldn’t find the answer.
I have a small scuff/scratch in one of my rim (stock Mazda 3 aluminum wheel, NOT chrome) and I’m going to try to fix it myself thanks to the post of one Axela member:
(http://www.bmwtips.com/tipsntricks/w...uff-repair.htm).

Does somebody know the paint color code/description to touch-up the rim?
The BMW link actually uses a silver paint but this is, of course, only for the BMW (I think). I went to the Mazda dealer and also their body shop but they couldn’t tell me or find out this.

Thanks!

I think it is the same as the sunlit silver My car is that color and the rims match the paint perfectly.

Thanks miles.

I'll try to find a touch-up 'sunsilver' color paint spray somewhere and test it.

Thanks M3,

I went to a couple of body shop (specialized in Mazda) and auto-stores but they couldn't tell me for certain. Just I have to buy and try.

I'll go to others and continue asking. If I find the right on (sunsilver or else) I'll post it here so others can benefit.
