Using Touch Up Paint To Repair Your Car

There is nothing more annoying as a car owner than getting a small scratch or scrape on the paintwork of your vehicle

. It may only be very small but every time you go to the car you will notice it. Usually these scratches and scrapes are caused by everyday use, things like missing the lock with your key and hitting the area around it, catching a ring as you go to open a door, or worst of all opening a door onto a small post or object that you simply did not see as you pulled up. All these things can cause small amounts of damage to the paintwork. Not enough to warrant the expense of getting someone in to repair it for you, but enough for you to notice.

For all of these situations, and the others not mentioned, when you wish you could just tidy up your paintwork, there is a possible solution. Most vehicle manufacturers now offer a range of touch up paint for this very process. An exact colour match for your vehicles colour, these touch up paints are available for very little cost and are ideal for repairing those small but annoying marks on your vehicles paintwork. The touch up paint comes in two main options, the pen or aerosol. Ideal for small jobs the touch up pen is similar to a ladys nail polish. The paint comes in a small container and is supplied with a small brush for ease of application. These pens are ideal for applications that need no preparation other than a simple wash to remove excess dirt and any loose paint. Application is as easy as painting a finger nail. A few strokes of the brush over the damaged area and the paintwork will be as good as new. For larger damaged areas manufacturers offer an aerosol version. The type of area that would require the use of an aerosol may also require some preparation before the paint is applied to get the best results. In these cases it may be worth considering getting a professional in to do the job.

Painting is an art form and done badly it will draw attention to your vehicle for all the wrong reasons. There are online sites that will simply ask for your vehicles registration number and will ensure that you receive the exact colour match touch up pen for your vehicles bodywork. For those larger jobs you should consider a car repairer to ensure the touch up is done professionally.
