Product Information

Full details

The Hycote Paint Pen Brush in Silver is designed for vehicle owners looking to perform precise, DIY touch-up repairs on minor paint chips and scratches. This 12.5ml kit offers a professional, durable finish that resists fading from sunlight; however, it is best suited for small, localized imperfections rather than large-scale body panel repainting.

FAQs

Can I use this on plastic bumpers?

Yes, the primer is designed to provide adhesion to both metal and plastic surfaces.

Does this kit include a clear coat?

This kit includes a grey primer and the colour coat. A separate clear coat may be applied afterwards if extra gloss and protection are desired.

How long should I wait between the primer and the paint?

Wait until the primer is touch-dry, usually 15-30 minutes depending on ambient temperature, before applying the silver colour.

Is the colour a guaranteed match?

The colour is matched to standard silver specifications, but variations can occur due to vehicle age and paint oxidation.

How do I store the paint pen after opening?

Ensure the cap is screwed on tightly and store the bottle in an upright position away from heat and direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears darker than the existing bodywork

This is often due to the existing paint being faded by sun exposure. Ensure you apply thin coats to build up depth gradually.

The finish looks uneven or 'blobby'

Avoid overloading the brush. Wipe excess paint off on the neck of the bottle before dabbing lightly onto the chip.

Primer is not sticking to the surface

Ensure the surface was cleaned with a degreaser or alcohol wipe prior to application to remove all traces of wax.

  • Excellent resistance to colour fading
  • Compatible with a wide variety of existing paint types
  • Compact 12.5ml size is perfect for glovebox storage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure the vehicle surface is at a moderate temperature and out of direct sunlight for the best adhesion. The kit is compatible with OEM, acrylic, and cellulosic finishes. After use, wipe the brushes clean with an appropriate solvent to prevent hardening. Always store the bottles upright in a cool, dry place to maintain the consistency of the paint. Avoid shaking the bottles vigorously; instead, roll them gently between your palms to mix the pigments before application.
