OEM Touch-up Paint

will it help "hide" the nicks in my car's finish? I just had "fresh" ones a few days ago.

thanks guys

I have a black max. Everytime I wax my car i'll go around the car and touch up the nicks. Make sure the car is clean when you do it, and make sure you don't use too much paint. It'll look fine and 10x better than a white mark. You can get a bottle at your dealer for about $10.

As stated before, just use as little paint as necessary to dab into the damaged area. It will definitely help hide minor chips. I have gotten touch up paint and other parts here:

Just pick your color!

some people told me in order to not make any kind of bump in the paint add a small amount of paint thinner with the paint so it will dry with a smooth coat instead of a bumpy one.
