I was just repairing some stone cheaps on my hood with the touch up pen.

ANyone else find this difficult to use? I try dabbing it into the stone chip but no paint comes out unless I push down firmly, then the paint goes outside of the stone chip also.

Anyone have any recommendations???

BTW anyone here work at "Hatch"?

Theres like 9 mazda 3's in my parking lot at work and thats just at 1 of the 3 buildings on the street

the trick is just to use it.. if it looks okay.. leave it at that.. you're not going to get it better than that.

Get some matches.

Take one out of the pack and cut it on a 45 degree angel

Press the paint pen down on some thing to let the paint run out

Then dip the match in the paint and use that to touch up your stone chip,

A buddy of mine who worked as a spray painter for GM did it this way.

Hope this helps.

lol I press the pen down on paper then take some paint off the pen with a tooth pick...works awesome
