  • Just picked up my touch up paint from VW, now what?

    So I've just picked up some touch up paint from Ballarat VW for $29.40.

    Has anyone used this stuff before? I've only read about pen applicators before but this is a brush in a pot. Seems like it'd be a bit inaccurate when applying to small paint chips.

    Any tools/DIY tips that would make the job more controlled? or am I better off taking the paint to a specialist to apply?

    For info, the kit contains:
    -Black Magic Touch Up Paint 9ml
    -Clear Coat 9ml
    -Foam Square?

    (also first time attaching photos so I hope they've worked properly!)

    They suck. Have patience and apply liberally. If you make a misstake you can wipe it off while still wet... I don't use that sponge, just a clean rag.. I dab it, but everyone is different..

      Thanks The one, sounds promising! Do I need a primer of any sort for small chips? (painting noob sorry)
