Touch up pen

Postby optical illusion » Mon Jun 02, 2008 11:01 pm

Anyone know where I'd get a pyreness black touch up pen? I'll have to go to a Mitzy dealer won't I?

Halford's don't do it. They do scotia white if anyone is interested though!

I recommend you get Halfords to make it up... I bought the scotia white W83 touch up kit, and the colour was off slightly! but when I got a touch up bottle made using the code it was 100% dead on. They will make you up 100ml bottle with brush for tenner I think. just bring the paint code from under the bonnet. If the brush is too big for tiny chip marks use the cocktail stick.

the halfords touch up pen in scotia white isnt a good match, i found vinny byrnes in ballyfermot very good for matching the colour and cheaper than halfords too

I can confirm that the OEM touch up pen is an exact match on passion red...

Good luck with that...

I've a red facelift in my estate and stuck a card under the wiper, disgusted they haven't joined. It's a girl's car too as teddy bears inside it. When the car is legal I may call round...
