Just picked up a touch up bottle for the Rad Rod (black)
I have just a few very small (pinhead size) spots where I'd like to apply. Wondering if anyone has any tips for the best way to do this. The bottle comes with an applicator brush but I'm thinking somebody here has already mess around with this and has a good tip...Thanks in advance

PS: just got my hood props replaced under warranty...be careful when you stick your head under because when that
baby comes down..it does so with authority!

After 45 years in the auto business, I think an easy way to touch up paint is with a toothpick. Dip the toothpick in the paint and apply a small drop onto the chip. It will leave it slightly above the old paint line. As the paint dries it will shrink slightly. Leave it a little above the old paint line.

Gray Ghost,

Thanks for the tip, sounds like it will work well for
the tiny spec I'm trying to touch up.

Muchas Gracias

Rad Rod

I bought Langka and am not impressed. I followed instructions and the result wasn't pretty.
