I didn't care for the paint pen from AutoVisuals. The paint flowed too fast for fine control. I ended up bleeding it onto a piece of plastic and using a toothpick. The color didn't match well (too dark on my IB) and it ran out of paint before I finished all the chips. The dry paint was hard to polish smooth.

I ordered a vial of touch up paint form www.paintscratch.com and was much happier with it. Cheaper, better match, easier to work with, and plenty left for next time. They include tips on how to touch up stone chips, scratches, etc., on the web site.
