I used the pen touchup on my 03 Accord that I sold. It works very well. Makes it considerablely easier to build up to the level of the surrounding paint. The same thing can be done with the brush, it just takes a little more patience.

I used it, not bad. I think that it would be better on other colors (I have WDP) because the pear is hard to match. Overall very good, easy to use, and covered well.

I paid $13 I think including shipping. Buy it from ebay user serf21. He ships from Canada and he's legit.

I've tried it on my Black TL - its easier to use than the brush. I'm not good at making it invisible but its not bad. I tried taking a picture - the spot didnt show

This is true, using pen should do better and easier than doing brush. My hood has numerous failure touch-up-paint now... My touch-up pen should be sent to me next week...

I've used it on one chip I got. Better than brush, you can control the fine coats. It also have a clear coat on the other end. Done with the proper procedure you'll get a very good result. Lore had sent me a detailed process on how to apply but I seemed to misplaced it.

Lore, can you please post the process again with rubbing compund and stuff?
