Touch up paint

I got some touch up for my Majestic Blue. The paint comes in a double-ended pen. One side is the blue paint, and the other is the clear coat. Has anyone else used this as opposed to the 'nail polish' type?

I am in Western Canada

where did you order that type of paint from? I bought some oem nissan paint and it came with the brush on bottle and was wrapped in a sheet of toilet paper.

I've got an identical pen-type touch up paint from the local dealer (which is where he probably got it). It was expensive for such a little thing! I don't know how well it works since I'm leery of using it in such cold weather. Maybe the brush-bottle type you got is just old stock?

I'm also in Western Canada btw!

Courtesy has them.

(courtesyparts.com)

We’d probably qualify for the 25% "mention max.org" discount on these. I haven’t tried it, but I’m interested to hear how it works out.

BTW, courtesy still has the old-style touch-up paint on their web site too. I guess take your pick. Might try your local dealer to avoid shipping.

Let me know how it works. I have a couple hundred paint chips to "touch up".

I got mine in Calgary, which is in Western Canada :-)

$11 bucks Canadian. The brush type seems easier since more liquid can be gathered by the brush. I will reapply another coat after I take it for a wash, and may be a cloth of zaino.
