Touch up SPRAY PAINT
Does anybody have any experience using Spray Paint for touch up. Seached the thread, but couldn't find anything on it. The lower portion of my front bumper beneath my mesh grille has all these minute specs from driving on the HWY. I'm thinking of spray painting it. I've heard of some products but want someone's ON HAND experience. Again, these are not scratches, rather specs.
As far as minor chips... i'm gonna try that pen from autovisuals - unless someone wants to steer me on another direction from experience.
Much appreciated

What do you mean by ‘specks’? Are they small chips or something on the paint that could maybe be removed?
I’m curious what people have to say about the chip repair. I’m thinking of trying the Griot’s kit.

What I mean by "specks" is that they are much much much more minor than a chip (if that makes any sense). IMO that's why I feel that a spray paint will do the job. I've already tried to get rid of them by trying to buff them out but no luck.
There's alot of stuff out there like that one you mentioned Griot, there's also another one I just heard about called LANGKA or something like that. There's also one from www.paintscratch.com ... just wanted peoples imput you know.
There's a thread in here which gives like 4 or 5 companies for paint "chips".

If you run your fingers across them after washing and the specks feel like raised little bumps then this is something on the paint I would try to remove. Have you tried clay or something like rubbing alcohol, adhesive remover or similar bug/ tar remover on the specks?
