Touch Up Paint (Which Brand?)
Hello MB drivers,
Just a quick question. Whats a reliable and good touch up paint brand for scratches and chips for MB?
I found some old threads that mentioned the OEM touch up from MB but the satisfactory rate was low.
Some others I saw was Dr. Colorchip and PaintScratch.
I have about a fingerprint sized chip on the rear bumper. Don't know when did that happen, probably when someone parked and bumped when I wasn't there.
Thanks again guys!

OEM should be the closest match, however I'm not sure you can easily fix a fingerprint sized chip with just touch-up.
I've personally used automotivetouchup.com for both spray cans and their touch up pens. I think the pen will actually work pretty good for your application. For $13 plus shipping it's worth to have it just in case for small chips, even if it doesn't work on your big chip.

I guess I can give that one a try! Thanks!

the OEM doesn't look close to the oem paint, it looks different i brought it was a waste of money , maybe if it included clear coat it would look the same, i used dupli-color from canadian tire here in canada and it looked way better, but still not exactly the same. i wouldn't waste my money on it again i would just get it done somewhere
