A. FIRST THING WILL BE TO DECIDE WHETHER I’M KEEPING THE CAR OR NOT AND WHAT TYPE OF PAINT APPLICATOR SHOULD BE USED ACCORDING TO THE TYPE AND RESULT I WANT.

IF YOU DONT HAVE ENOUGH KNOWLEDGE ABOUT SPRAY PAINTING AND AEROSOL SPRAY THEN WE DONT RECOMMEND THIS APPLICATION TYPES BY D.I.Y, SPRAY PAINTING IS A 4 YEAR SCHOOLING TRADE AND IS TECHNICAL… SO DONT DO IT IF YOU’RE A BEGINNER, YOU WILL LIKELY MAKE A SIMPLE SCRATCH INTO AN ENORMOUS REPAIR OR WORSE THAN THE ORIGINAL SCRATCH, THIS GOES FOR PAINT CHIPS AND OTHER TYPES OF BLEMISHES.

Q: CAN I USE THE COLOR THAT CAME WITH MY CAR?
A: YES YOU CAN, WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF FACTORY PAINTS THAT COMES WITH A NEW CAR AS IT IS CONSIDERABLY BLOBBY AND WHEN APPLIED IS VERY THICK AND LOOKS DISAPPOINTING, IT WAS MADE FOR MANUFACTURERS USING A HIGH BAKE OVEN AND VERY HIGH AIR PRESSURE, SO THE VISCOSITY OF THE PAINT IS VERY THICK, EVEN IF YOU THIN IT THE PAINT IT STILL ISNT VERY GOOD BECAUSE IT CHANGES THE DENSITY OF THE MATERIAL AND THEN ACTS LIKE A TRICOLOUR NEEDING A SHADE COLOUR WHICH COSTS, BESIDES YOU ONLY GET THE COLOR WHEN YOU BUY A NEW CAR, SO YOU CANNOT REPLICATE WHAT THE MANUFACTURER DID. USING OUR BRUSH TOUCH PAINT REPAIR KITS, WE HAVE THE FACTORY PAINTS MADE FOR REPAIRERS WHICH HAVE A GREAT FLOW AND VISCOSITY, SO WHEN APPLIED, LAYER MUCH BETTER. THE BEST BET IS TO INVEST IN A AUTOMOTIVE TOUCH-UP PAINT DIY BRUSH TOUCH PEN REPAIR KIT MANUFACTURED BY US.

A.USE SOLVENT OR MINERAL TURPENTINE TO CLEAN UP.
Q. WHAT IF I GET A PAINT DRIP.
A. AGAIN TYPICALLY WHEN A PAINT SCRATCH IS PURCHASED CLEANUP COMES STANDARD AND FREE WITHIN THE KIT…(CONDITIONS APPLY) SO FIRST SIMPLY ADD A SMALL AMOUNT OF THE CLEAN-UP SOLUTION TO AN INCLUDED CLEANING PAD THEN TEST ON A SMALL AREA TO MAKE SURE AREA SURROUNDING IS NOT ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY THE SOLUTION BEFORE CONTINUING TO SIMPLY REMOVE THE PAINT DRIP, HERE IS A TIP, WASH YOUR CAR AND PARK IT IN THE SUN TO HEAT UP THE PANELS SO WHEN YOUR APPLYING PAINT IT DRIES FAST RESISTING SAGS AND DRIPS, BUT YES SIMPLY WIPE ALL PAINT DRIPS OFF USING CLEAN-UP SOLVENT.

A. THE SCRATCHES AND PAINT DAMAGE WILL STILL BE THERE THESE KITS ARE DESIGNED TO “CAMOUFLAGE” ONLY, SO IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY YOU WILL SEE THAT THERE HAS BEEN A TOUCHUP, BUT FROM A CLOSE DISTANCE THE TOUCH UP REPAIRS THAT ARE CONDUCTED USING THE BRUSH TOUCH KITS ARE NOT AS NOTICEABLE.

Q: WHY SHOULD I INVEST IN A AUTOMOTIVE TOUCH-UP PAINT, BRUSH TOUCH REPAIR KIT.
A: WE ALWAYS RECOMMEND AUTOMOTIVE TOUCH UP PAINT BRUSH TOUCH KITS BY THE SIMPLE FACTS THAT THEY ARE COST EFFECTIVE AND CAMOUFLAGE EYE SORES ON ANY PANEL OR PART OF A VEHICLE. IF I HAD A SCRATCH ON MY BUMPER AND I WANTED TO FIX IT, I KNOW IF I WENT TO A PANEL BEATER IT WOULD COST A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS TO PATCH, IF I WANTED IT TO BE REPAIRED BACK TO A FACTORY CONDITION I KNOW ON AN AVERAGE IT WOULD BE CLOSER TO A THOUSAND DOLLARS OR MORE, AND THAT’S JUST FOR THE BUMPER BAR. BRUSH TOUCH KITS ARE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC AND THE MOST ECONOMICAL PAINT REPAIR KITS EVER MADE IN AUSTRALIA, THE KITS REPLICATES THE PAINT LAYERS OF THE CAR MANUFACTURERS THEREFORE WHEN there IS A MINOR IMPACT OR PAINT DAMAGE IT CAN BE CAMOUFLAGED QUITE WELL, MIND YOU, STONE CHIPS SCRATCHES AND BLEMISHES IS SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS QUITE FREQUENTLY, IT WOULD BE VERY EXPENSIVE TO HAVE A BUMPER PAINTED OR REPLACED EVERY TIME THERE WAS A SCRATCH OR MINOR DAMAGE. BE IT THE CASE YOU HAVE STONE CHIPS SCRATCHES OR BLEMISHES, ONCE YOU HAVE PURCHASED A DIY AUTOMOTIVE TOUCH-UP PAINT BRUSH TOUCH KIT, YOU CAN QUITE EASILY TOUCH UP PAINT DAMAGES WHEN NECESSARY. WE RECOMMEND IF YOU ARE KEEPING YOU CAR YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE THE BAR OR DAMAGED PART RESPRAYED UNLESS IT IS EXTREMELY DAMAGED, OUR REASON FOR THIS POINT OF VIEW IS THAT, WE TOUCH UP CARS IN OUR REPAIR FACILITY DAILY AND WE SEE SOME OF THE VEHICLES DAMAGED IN EXACTLY THE SAME SPOT WITHIN THE SAME MONTH, ONCE WE POINT OUT THE FACTS HERE TALKED ABOUT THEY ARE QUICK TO BY A BRUSH TOUCH KIT.
Q: WHY WERE THESE KITS DEVELOPED.
A: THESE KITS WERE DEVELOPED BECAUSE THEY WERE A GREAT WAY TO HIDE PAINT DAMAGE AND SAVE MONEY, THEY ARE EASY TO USE AND ANYBODY CAN DO IT, AS LONG AS THEY READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. (YOU CANNOT DRIVE A CAR WITHOUT READING THE DRIVERS INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL, NOW CAN YOU).
Q: WHY SHOULD I USE THIS BRUSH TOUCH KIT.
A: OUR TOUCH UP KITS HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO CAMOUFLAGE UNSIGHTLY PAINT DAMAGES AND ARE AFFORDABLE, STONE CHIPS SCRATCHES AND BLEMISHES OCCUR DAILY AND OUR BRUSH TOUCH AND PEN KITS ARE THE BEST WAY TO MAINTAIN A VEHICLES GOOD LOOKS.
Q: WILL THE COLOR MATCH MY CAR.
A: THE COLOR WE SUPPLY WILL MATCH YOUR CAR AS WE USE THE WORLDS LEADING PAINT MANUFACTURES PAINTS PRODUCTS AND FORMULAS. THERE IS REASON IF YOUR TOUCH UP COLOR DOES NOT MATCH. IF YOUR CAR IS FADED OR HAS BEEN REPAINTED IN THE PAST AND AN INCORRECT MATCH WAS DONE USING A BUDGET COPY PAINT SYSTEM OR THE PAINT IS FADED THEN THE COLOR WILL NOT MATCH. WE CAN SAY ABOUT 98 PERCENT OF THE TIME THE COLOR MATCHES AND IS OR CLOSE ENOUGH TO SUCCESSFULLY CAMOUFLAGE PAINT DAMAGE.
