Product Information

Full details

The Hycote Touch Up Brush Paint is designed for vehicle owners looking to perform DIY repairs on minor scratches and stone chips without the need for professional body shop services. It provides a highly durable, color-matched finish that resists sunlight and fading, making it an ideal maintenance tool for both modern and classic cars. While it offers excellent versatility on multiple surfaces, users should note that it is best suited for small, localized imperfections rather than large-area bodywork touch-ups.

FAQs

Can this paint be used on plastic car bumpers?

Yes, Hycote Touch Up Brush Paint is fully compatible with plastics, metals, wood, and ceramics.

Do I need to apply a clear coat after using this?

While the paint provides a tough finish, applying a clear coat over the top can provide extra depth and protection, especially on metallic colors.

How long should I wait between coats?

It is a fast-drying formula, but for the best results, wait 15-20 minutes depending on the ambient temperature.

Is this safe to use on older vehicles?

Yes, the product is designed to work effectively on both modern and older vehicles.

What is the shelf life of this paint?

If stored with the cap tightly sealed in a cool, dark place, it can last for several years, though performance may decline if the solvent evaporates.

Troubleshooting

The paint appears to be too thick or gloopy

Ensure the cap was closed tightly. If the solvent has evaporated slightly, you may stir the paint carefully; do not add thinners unless specified by product safety guidelines.

The finish looks uneven after drying

You likely applied too much paint at once. Lightly sand with a high-grit automotive sandpaper (2000+) once fully cured and polish to blend.

The paint is not sticking to the surface

Clean the area again with a degreaser. There is likely residual wax, silicone, or polish preventing the paint from gripping the substrate.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Convenient brush-in-cap design for easy, controlled application
  • Highly resistant to environmental factors like UV light and fading
  • Suitable for a variety of materials beyond just vehicle bodywork
  • Quick drying time minimizes wait during repair cycles
  • Compact 12.5ml size is perfect for glovebox storage

Cons

  • Not suitable for large surface area repairs due to the small brush size
  • Requires a steady hand for deep scratch filling
  • Performance depends on the correct color match for specific vehicle codes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, always start with a clean, dry, and wax-free surface. Use a mild degreaser or alcohol-based cleaner to remove any contaminants before application, as wax will prevent the paint from bonding properly.

When storing the container, ensure the cap is tightened fully to prevent the solvent from evaporating and the paint from drying out. Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the resin. For cleaning the brush after use, you may gently wipe it with a lint-free cloth dampened with a small amount of thinners, taking care not to fray the bristles.
