I bought some at the dealer. It works alright. You still see the scratch. I have a black mica MS6 that my daughter autographed with her bik when she was learning how to ride. Got the driver side door and front panel. about an 8" scratch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/69.gif)
The biggest issue is the size of the brush that comes with it. You will need a much finer tip brush to fill in. |

The one that comes with the touch up bottle is the same size as a finger nail polish brush tip. It's totally useless for fine thin scratches. |

I've actually pulled 1 bristle from a broom and used that. It works well!

anyone used those pens? The ones at the auto parts stores work okay, but anyone use those one's they advertise in the back of magazines?

I used the pen from autozone... works great.. covers up scratches very well, but ofcourse, not perfect.. I'm sure other people can't tell it's there.. but I can.
Has anyone else tried this kit they sell @ Checkers.. it includes the touch up paint, special sanding tool, and a buffer? $30.00 |

I have the Mazda bottle with the big brush. I used the edge of the bottom of the brush to get into a few scratches.
My brother closed the garage door as I was pulling out. I backed into and bent the door. The door stopped itself but then reversed itself and scratched up the spoiler a bit. The white is paint transfer. (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2450/3897513219_00c2fa06da_b.jpg) ~Mike |

The touch up pen from mazda can work very well. All depands how much damage has been done? The pen is mostly for stone chips & minor scratchs..
