Product Information
Full details
The Hycote Touch Up Brush Paint is designed for vehicle owners looking for a professional-grade solution to address unsightly scratches and stone chips on their car bodywork. It offers the benefit of a precision-matched silver finish that is both durable and resistant to environmental weathering, providing an easy DIY fix to maintain a vehicle's aesthetic value. One primary caveat is that the small 25ml container is intended for minor paintwork imperfections rather than large-scale surface restoration, requiring steady hands and patience for the best results.

FAQs
Can this paint be used on plastic car bumpers?
Yes, this paint is specifically formulated to be compatible with plastic surfaces.
Does this product require a clear coat?
While the paint is durable, applying a clear coat over the touch-up can add extra depth and protection against the elements.
How long does it take to dry?
The paint is fast-drying, though it is recommended to wait at least 30 minutes between coats depending on ambient temperature.
Is this paint suitable for deep scratches that have reached the metal?
For deep scratches, you may need a primer to prevent rust before applying the colour coat.
Will this colour match any silver car?
No, this is colour-matched to specific manufacturer specifications. Ensure the MPN matches your vehicle's colour code.
Can I use this on non-automotive items?
Yes, it is suitable for use on wood, ceramics, and other metals.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears streaky or uneven
Ensure the bottle is shaken thoroughly to mix the metallic particles and apply in very thin, even layers.
Paint is not adhering to the surface
Clean the area thoroughly with an automotive-grade degreaser to remove wax, silicone, or road grime.
Paint has become thick in the bottle
Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after every use; avoid leaving the bottle open for extended periods while painting.
