I read somewhere about..

making the touch-up paint more even rather than having a blob by applying some kind of liquid on a cloth, then whipe in on the touch-up paint area (the liquid will melt the paint), then use a square looking thing to cover it to make the touch-up paint even.

I can't remember what the item is called..Perhaps someone here can help me out?'

Thanks!

I think you might be thinking of this stuff (mentioned in an old post by Beachnut): http://www.langka.com/newsite/index2.html

from an old post by Hihoslva here is a link to some good touch up application info: http://www.carcareonline.com/paint_chips.html

for some more on the subject, the results of a search on "touch up paint smooth" can be found at:

Hmm, seems like people are using the touch-up paint for chips and crack. However, I'm using it for the surface scratch I had. Does it still work with toothpick?

Thanks

It's a repair kit from Mothers. It comes with a bottle of some sh*t,a plastic card,and instructions. Havn't used it yet,but might consider. Saw this product in the latest Superstreet
