Full details
The Hycote Colour Touch Up Brush Paint is an ideal solution for vehicle owners looking to address minor cosmetic imperfections like stone chips and surface scratches. Designed for ease of use, this 37.5ml bottle provides a high-quality, durable finish that is UV-resistant and compatible with a wide range of surfaces beyond just automotive bodywork. While it is perfect for targeted repairs, users should note that it is best suited for small touch-ups rather than large-scale surface coverage or body panel painting.

FAQs
Can this be used on plastic car bumpers?
Yes, this paint is specifically formulated to be compatible with plastic surfaces.
Do I need a primer before applying the paint?
For bare metal, a primer is recommended to prevent rust; however, for small surface chips over existing paint, direct application is usually sufficient.
How long does it take to dry?
The paint is quick-drying, generally touch-dry within 20 to 30 minutes depending on ambient temperature.
Can I use this on surfaces other than a car?
Yes, it adheres well to wood, metal, and ceramics, making it useful for general household touch-ups.
How do I remove excess paint if I make a mistake?
If the paint is still wet, you can wipe it away immediately with a clean cloth soaked in a suitable solvent or degreaser.
Does it work on deep gouges in the metal?
For very deep gouges, you may need to build up the depth with multiple thin layers, as the paint is primarily designed for chip and scratch repair.
Troubleshooting
The paint appears to be a different shade after drying.
Ensure the bottle was shaken for the full two minutes; if the surface was oxidized, polishing the surrounding area first will help the repair blend better.
The paint is too thick or gloopy.
The paint may be cold; keep it at room temperature for an hour before use to restore optimal consistency.
Repair looks uneven or raised.
You may have applied too much paint. Use less on the brush and apply in thinner layers, allowing 15-20 minutes of drying time between applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure the target area is completely free of wax, grease, or silicone; use a dedicated degreaser or alcohol wipe if necessary. The paint is compatible with existing OEM finishes, but it is always recommended to test the color on a small, inconspicuous area first. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the paint. After use, wipe the brush and the rim of the bottle with a solvent-dampened cloth to ensure the cap seals tightly, which prevents the remaining paint from drying out prematurely.
