Fineline Pure Wood Trim: how to touch up wear marks?
I have a 2015 X5 with Fineline Pure Wood Trim. The wood has held up fairly well, but the center console Wood Trim has several small wear marks (nicks and scratches) that could use a quick touch up with a very small brush. The nicks appear lighter than the wood color.
Does BMW have a touch up kit for this issue? If so, please provide the part #. If not, has anyone touched these up on their own? If so please state what stain or paint did the job (manufacture name, paint code or stain name. Was it water based? What sheen was used i.e. flat or satin. I am tempted to go to an art store and get small containers of water based acrylic paints and mix myself to the proper color. Any suggestions? Thanks. |

You should just order the knee bolsters (knee pads) from r33_RGSport

I'm also interested if you find a good match. Just noticed a .3mm nick the other day, looked like a piece of dust. No clue how it got there, so hoping this material holds up.

For wood touch ups, have you tried liquid Old English? It comes in a variety of colours, and also comes in a touch up pen variety. It works amazing well, and would be ideal for the matte wood...but it will not work on glossy/sealed wood.

So I put this image on imgur and someone replied with

Exactly - the lightness is what draws your eyes to it most times. A sharpie in the crack with a quick wipe afterwards will make 99.9% of the people never see it.

So an update on this, I bought the pen linked above and I am very impressed. Here is an after shot.
Here is another spot where I used it. I think I will need to put a small amount of wood putty as it's a deeper scratch. However, overall I am very pleased with this product. |

Part #9 had codes and names for each trim. Same for the door panels and knee pads area. |
