Product Information

Full details

The Hycote Colour Touch Up Brush Paint is an ideal solution for vehicle owners looking to perform DIY repairs on minor paint damage such as scratches and stone chips. Designed for ease of use, this product offers a professional-grade color match for a wide range of manufacturers, providing a tough, hard-wearing finish that resists fading and sunlight. While perfect for small touch-ups, users should note that the 12.5ml brush applicator is intended for targeted, precision repairs rather than large-scale panel repainting.

FAQs

Can this paint be used on metal and plastic?

Yes, the Hycote formulation is compatible with both metal and plastic surfaces.

How do I ensure the color matches my car?

The paint is pre-matched to specific manufacturer codes; always verify your vehicle's paint code against the product specifications before purchase.

Does it need a clear coat over the top?

While it provides a tough, hard-wearing finish, applying a clear coat can add extra depth and protection to match modern base-coat/clear-coat finishes.

How long should I wait before driving?

While the paint is fast-drying, it is recommended to wait at least 1-2 hours for the surface to become touch-dry and 24 hours for it to fully cure.

What is the best way to clean the surface before applying?

Use a specialized automotive degreaser or isopropyl alcohol to remove wax, silicones, and road grime from the chip site.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears darker than the vehicle body

Vehicle paint often fades over time due to UV exposure; ensure the application is thin and consider polishing the surrounding area to blend.

Paint looks uneven or streaky

Apply thinner coats and allow sufficient drying time between layers; avoid over-brushing once the paint starts to set.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent color matching for specific vehicle models
  • Suitable for various substrates including metal and plastic
  • High resistance to UV sunlight and environmental fading
  • Compact and convenient size for minor DIY repairs

Cons

  • Not suitable for large surface area repairs
  • Requires steady hand for precise application
  • Color accuracy may vary slightly on heavily weathered or oxidized vehicle paint

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, test the paint on a hidden area or a sample card to confirm color match. Ensure the repair surface is between 15°C and 25°C for optimal drying times. To maintain the life of the product, always wipe the neck of the bottle clean before replacing the cap to prevent the brush from sticking or air from drying out the remaining contents. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The product is highly versatile and works on most automotive plastics and metals, but it is not intended for use over loose rust or flaking clear coat; these must be sanded and prepped prior to application.
