Introduction

The Touchuppaint touch-up paint pen is ideal for addressing minor scratches and small chips on your vehicle's bodywork. Below is our recommended guide for using and applying touch-up paint effectively.

Prepare & Clean

• Remove Wax and Polish: Use a suitable remover to eliminate any wax or polish, which can hinder paint adhesion.
• Clear Away Grease: Ensure the surface is free from greasy residues to promote better paint bonding.

Shake & Test

Thoroughly shake the paint pen for even dispersion and proper colour consistency:

Brush or Pen?

Choose the right applicator based on the repair area:

• Needle-Like Pen: Ideal for precise work on scratches and small chips.
• Small Fine Brush: Suitable for broader strokes or larger areas that need more coverage.

Paint & Finish

• Apply Thin Coats: Use smooth strokes to apply thin, even coats within the damaged area.
• Correct Application: Avoid applying excess paint outside the damaged area to maintain original bodywork appearance.
• Drying Time: Let the paint dry for 15 minutes before applying additional coats or clear lacquer.
• Weather Considerations: Cold or damp weather may affect application and drying times.
