Definition: This pen colour touch up paint is used for covering deep discoloured scratches, chips & paint defects caused by the impact of an object where color coats are completely removed and/or left paint transfer behind that is impervious to solvent & is to thick to remove using cream cutting agents.
Color Tips & Tricks: Many scratches can be removed without colour just by using the clean-up, blemish remover or clear gloss if the scratch has not penetrated the color coat. It is often thought that colour is needed for all scratches. If the scratch is distinctly discoloured then the colour will be definitely needed. Best way to tell is to wet the scratch with clean up if it disappears when wet then use blemish remover or clear to remove the scratch. If primers are removed and permanent repairs are desired we recommend primers be re-applied. Note: Clear is not traditionally used on non-metallic paints.
1) Clean damaged areas with a cleaning agent using clean-up Prep-it or alike.
2) Shake paint pen color contents well.
3) Remove the cap and discharge the initial amount to rubbish by pressing the pen down in an upright position and squeezing the pen body slightly.
4) Checked the color is correct?
5) Apply 1 or 2 coats of Color only to the fully discoloured areas of damaged paint where the paint layers including the color coat have been completely removed. Note: If either bare metal or plastic is visible it is recommended for permanent repairs the primers be reapplied.
6) Allow 3 minutes of drying time in between coats in good weather.
Color Pen Tips & Tricks: If you have impact residue (paint transfer) that did not come off with solvent or blemish remover, apply one or two coats of color directly on only the discoloured area.
