Here's what our customers are saying about our Touch Up Paint:
John H, owner of a 1990 Buick from Sarasota, FL
The Issue: Though my 1990 Buick Reatta is nearly 25 years old I keep it in pristine condition. That is why I was extremely disappointed when a dump truck I was behind lost some gavel and it hit the front of my car. Miraculously for some odd reason it only did damage to the Driver's Side Headlamp Cover ... but it did a lot of damage; there were at least 25 chips with a while background. It looked horrible ... in fact, within a few hours someone had already noticed the mess and mentioned it. Not wanting to have to get the entire front of the car painted I ordered a set of Paint Pens from AutomotiveTouchup.com; Sandable Primer, Basecoat Color [GMC 81], and Gloss Clearcoat as well as Prep Solvent.
The Process: Removed the Headlamp Cover from the car > Cleaned it thoroughly with the Prep Solvent using a rag, a toothpick, and a Cotton Swab to get all residue out of both the new and old chips > Next I applied the Primer using both the pen's tip for larger chips, a very small brush for smaller ones and a toothpick for tiny chips > 30 minutes later I used the Basecoat using the same method > 60 minutes later I used the same method to apply the Clearcoat > After allowing the Headlamp Cover to dry [15+ minutes] I reinstalled it.
Bottom Line: From two feet away the Headlamp Cover looks factory nice. Even under very close inspection under a bright light it looks amazing ... only the remnants of where the chips once were is visible. It is important to mention that the color match

Color seems too match very well. Too early in the project for finish pictures, may need more.
