Rust pen, where to find them??

So I've got a lot of rock chips like every other Maxima owner..... I have some touch up paint and some of them are a little rusty. I've heard of these rust pens but have no idea where to find them. I probably have a good year of my life spent in auto stores and have never seen them. Where can I find them? I googled it but I'm not even sure what I've turned up is what I need. I'd like to pick one up local if possible. Anyone?

i think you're referring to the 3M rust avenger.


it converts rusty chips into a paintable surface.
bad news is that this handy pen is no longer available. 3M stopped production.

When I got my Langka paint chip repair kit, I got their prep pen too. Works pretty good (I wish the tip were smaller though) but you can file it down and narrow it up as much as you'd like (I just haven't done it yet).

Why can't you just paint over the chip with Nissan touch-up paint?
