Hi y'all,
I've got some places on my truck that need touch up paint (they've needed it for a while but I just finally found the right color for them). There's two different things in particular I'm working on. On my tailgate I've got several deep scratches, and on my front bumper, the bottom of the grill is rubbing on the bumper, and there is a spot about 3" by 2" without paint (of course it's rusting now). Which kind of touch up paint would be better; the one with the pen and the little brush, or a spray can? I'm guessing the pen and brush one would be better. Also, any tips as to how to prevent ugly touch up paint blobs would be appreciated. I actually am hoping to learn how to do this so I can get a few spots on my motorcycle too (and maybe even offer it as a service of my detailing biz? I'm not sure about that, though...). Thanks in advance for any help!
Edit: Also, would using clear coat on top of the touch ups help? I'm not looking to make it perfect (I know it's not possible), but I would sure like to get it looking as good as I can.
