[Fotowns Finest]

hey all, ive decided i want to touch up my paint myself, and i was wondering if anyone knew of some nice DIY products i could buy. i got my 01 navy blue metallic recently and theres enough paint chips in the hood for me to care about, and id really rather not have to pay someone else to fix this

Fotown, get a bottle of T/U paint from either the dealer or a body shop. If you go to a body shop ask them NOT to reduce the mix. Do not use the included brush. Instead, go to a crafts store a buy a good artists brush kit containing brush sizes slightly smaller than the size of the chips. Use those brushes instead. It takes a few coats to cover the area and do not GLOB it on. This will save you $$ and give a decent repair.

While swapping my rear bowtie out with a black painted one, i made a nice little chip when i pulled it off. Luckily its pretty small, and in an inconspicuous area....gonna use some touch up to fix it.
