The touch-up pen paints for your car

The first car, Freddy, was introduced at the end of 2009, and the second car, Lavida PLUS, was replaced at the end of May 2019. The black car I like is dignified and atmospheric. It has been more than a year and a half now, and I love the car very much. Leaders at home occasionally tease me and say that I found a lover.

But no matter how much I care about it, bumps and bumps are inevitable as told by some motorists. However, I can’t understand how the paint fell off on the hood. I found it when cleaning the car while washing the car. At that time, I thought it was not cleaned properly, but found that the paint fell off. Could it be someone scratched on purpose? I really don’t want to believe this.
Later, there was a rainy day when driving. Maybe the road was slippery or the driver behind him was distracted and was rear-ended by the car behind him. The next day, I saw that the rear bumper had been scratched quite deep.
Because there were mud and water stains on the car, I thought it had been scratched. However, after washing the car, I found that the rear bumper was not only hit in this area. Many paint spots were broken, and the bright strips on the lower part were knocked. To be honest, it made me feel distressed.
The first reaction was to contact the shop for painting repairs. Because it was cold in winter, I had to use a car to commute to and from work every day, so I wanted to go there early on the weekend morning and drive home in the evening after the repair that day. However, the manager in charge of sheet metal painting said that there were many cars to be repaired in the shop, and I couldn’t pick them up that day. I was worried that I didn’t believe it, and he took a video of the car in the workshop to show me.
What should I do if I look at it and feel distressed? Paint painting in the store can’t be solved in the near future. Paint touch-up pens, use the paint touch-up pens you bought online to make do with, and then repair the paint when you have time. For this reason, I read many posts about riders using touch-up pens to repair paint, and I also searched many articles to read and learn good experiences.
First, wipe the areas where paint needs to be repainted with a wet car wash towel to avoid affecting the adhesion of the car paint.
Then shake the touch-up pen for a period of time to mix the paint inside evenly. After dipping the brush with one end of the paint, remember to grate it at the mouth of the bottle to avoid too much paint and causing downward flow and contaminating the good paint surface. See some motorists. It is also a very good way to stick paper tape around to prevent pollution. As long as the touch-up paint does not flow downward, I think it will be fine to stick it or not.
Note that it usually takes several times to repair the paint. After the first paint is slightly dry for a few minutes, you can continue to repair the paint on the basis of the last time. Make sure that the paint surface is slightly higher than the paint surface around you, because this is the only way to polish.
After I repainted the car, I let it dry for nearly a month. When the repainted paint was completely dry, I went to the last process: polishing and polishing. This process was a favor from a friend. The polishing process was done with 2000 and 3000 mesh water sandpaper, and the friend was polishing carefully.
After polishing, the car will be polished and polished. After polishing, the car will be as bright as new from a little distance.
A friend said that there is no pearl powder in the paint of the touch-up pen. If you look carefully, there is still a clear difference between the paint and the original car paint. I think I’ll just make do with it for now. It’s much better than the original one. If you don’t look carefully, it’s just like a new car. I’m satisfied.
