Touch-up paint

[Schojack]

Has anyone used paintnbuts.co.uk to order touch-up paints for their MP? Some nice person has scraped my new MP today - not sure how, and they clearly didn't see the need to own up!!! It seems like a superficial scrape, so I'd like to sort it myself rather than ask Mercedes.

As it happens I've just this week used some of their paint to touch up my other vehicle. Colour was a good match.

I used AB Touch Ups via Amazon (£6 something) and was very pleased. Good colour match and the applicator allows very fine painting

In the end I was recommended Chipex Ltd by a car enthusiast friend. He reckoned this the best solution - it doesn't rely upon accurate brush strokes, avoiding any lumps and bumps once dry. I've some arriving next week and will report back.

@Carol - you really should consider trying to polish out before you touch up. It could really be the difference between making it invisible vs looking worse.
I worked in a car body repair shop for many years in a previous life
