Question Paint touch up question.

I recently bought the paint touch up kit from my dealer and I have a question. It was Indie Blue and came with another bottle. I haven't opened it nor have tried to touch up the sections because the directions aren't in English.

For those who have done this, what do I actually do to touch up the surface? As I said there's 2 bottles and I kinda wanna know where to go from here.

One bottle is the paint with the color of your car. The other bottle I believe is the clear coat that goes over the part you've touched up.Remember to take the wax off the area before you begin painting. I found the brush that came with the touch-up paint too thick, so I used an eye-liner make-up brush. Here's to necessity being the mother of invention.

Thanks Denise,
One more question, what product is good to remove wax? Paint cleaner that would come with a Meguiers kit or do you have a better product?

A micro-fiber towel wet with clean water and a little Dawn dish soap. Wipe on the touch-up area, rinse well, then you're off!
