its weard how it didnt work for you, i sware by that stuff..i use it all the time on my hood and you cant even notice afterwards..but anyways, you can go to your local auto store and pick up touch up paint from there for the same color as your car, but i always find them to be really bad..for touch ups tho, im not really sure anything else you can do, anyone? cuz i would like to no too if theres somthing better then what im using

yeah, i know what you mean man, but aint no touch up paint gunna match the origional due to sun fade, weathering, and what not. bout the only true option is to sand it down and get a pro paint shop to repaint it or just redo the whole thing so you got the origional paint from the get go.

Like already stated, duplicolor make a ball point/brush touch up kit, and it looks just as good as all of your stuff. And just remember: It's not the paint, It' the PAINTER!

silver is one of the hardest colors to match, and touch ups aren't really exact
