Paint Pens
I use:
(1) touch-up bottle paint - $6.25 at Acura dealer.
(2) touch-up paint pen - $9.95 from Chip-Mender.
Pens are great for touching up very small scratches and stone nicks. You can more easily control the application of the paint without blobbing too much. It's so easy that you can touch-up after every wash of the car if needed. Because I commute 110 miles a day on the interstate, my TL gets a lot of small nicks.
You can get the same result with bottle paint if you thin it and then use a fine tip quality brush, and then clean the brush. It's just more work than with the pen.
- 2003 TL, 5AT, DGM with parchment
- 2005 TL, 5AT, RRP with parchment
