Title: Rock chips and touch up paint...
Post by: StealBlueSho on December 20, 2018, 05:31:18 PM
I have a couple rock chips on my hood, fairly small, and I am considering touch up paint...

Is touch up paint just gonna highlight the issue like it did 16 years ago or has it gotten better?

Some good quality touch up paint from Ford will look much better than missing paint all day long.  They work pretty well for misc chips but a long scratch.....covering yes but then the touch up paint is noticeable.  All in all theyre not great but they serve their purpose for little chips and stuff without needing a respray.

The Motorcraft Touch-Up Paint does wonders and still have mine since purchasing my SHO new back on 8/13.  Z   :)
The MC touch-up paint is based on your VIN number applicable to your vehicle...

BTY make certain to use it Sparingly as a little bit goes a long way..

Love the EBPF in the picture!

Thanks everyone for the info! I'll pick some up from my local dealer.
