Touch up paint.

My 98 SE has a few door dinks and some minor scratches on the bumper and I'm looking into touching it up a bit. What's good for fixing the door dinks and also the scratches? I've tried touch-up paint from nissan on my mirrors before, but the paint doesn't seem to go on smooth. My car is black so it shouldn't be too hard to match colors.

a lot of other people on here say they get good results from www.paintscratch.com i haven't tried them myself, but supposedly they're pretty good. the stuff from the dealer sucks. don't bother with that.

i used duplicolor from autozone, but new paint never macthes old paint to it sticks out, it did go on smooth but when it realyt sunny you can see the spots where i touched up. Hopefully the sun beats on the new paint so it matches a little more.
