I don't have any chips on my car, but I do have a couple of deep scratches from where my Cooper badge was stolen. So which route should I go - using the touch up paint and a fine-tipped brush or using the Autosharp pen? I've already purchased the touch-up paint, so I'd hate to have wasted the money by using something else. But if that something else works better, I'll do it. I have Dark Silver if that makes any difference and I'll also be using Langka to even things out. I'd much appreciate any advice as I haven't done anything about these scratches for like a month - just want to make sure I do it right.

 

If you are using Langka i'd just use the touch up paint as dark silver really does an excellent job of hiding stuff in my opinion - my first s was dark silver and i was amazed at how well touch ups and scratches etc were hidden - especially compared to my current jet black S which shows everything and then some :smile:

 

If you already have the touch paint, then use it with the langka. Great product. Just follow there directions for scratches. Also, shake the color tube a long time and then mix a drop a the color and a drop of the clearcoat together in a separate container and apply the mix. Let dry and remove the excess with Langka.

What's a Langka?

 

>>What's a Langka?
yeah.

And, where's the correct/working "autosharp" linky?

 

Langka's a product that helps remove excess touch-up paint. It supposedly helps the area worked to become nice and flush with the paint around it, avoiding the dreaded blob-effect. Langka

The Autosharp pens are available here.
