Personally after using Speed blue touch up stick on my speed blue car I can still tell (quite ocd) so one would assume that with a different shade of red it would be more noticeable... I guess it depends on how ocd you are...Hi guys looking for some advice. As the title suggests I have a couple of small chips and small scratch I want to touch up on my emocion red Leon FR. Will the colour difference be notable if I use a flash red touch up ?
Cheers

I assume being different paint codes (LP3G is flash red and LS3H is emocion red I think) it will be off...
Also I would never use the brush you get with touch up paints either they hold too much paint and are too wide lol.
Not very helpful I know lol
Have you searched ebay for the paint code? Also will you be putting lacquer over the top or just the paint?You're probably right I'm pretty OCD especially as this is the newest car I've owned lol.
The reason I'm asking is that halfords only do the flash red and although its halfords i've found that the brush in their touch up pen is really fine and perfect for small touch ups. As you mentioned the brushed i've seem from elsewhere are ridiculous, lift a nail varnish brush...
That's a good shout! Looks like it will work a treat although be careful not to leave a big blob lol I may even get one if it works well after you use it. My 8 year old speed blue has a few holes... The only issue I see is unless there is a cap for the top whe in you do a chip on the bumper it will all spill out lolI have just sent for one of these for doing touch ups, the chipex applicators are good too, but hoping this "Pen" takes it up a notch.

Where did you get yours from? I'm interested already without waiting hahaYes may be awesome, if u see it in the for sale section you will know its pants LOL. Pro Detailers are right into them, can see the pros to especially when doing a few chips as when you "Load" up the paint their is usually a blob on the first chip.

Good find! I may get one and see if it beats my current one before I try and do the ones on the bonnet.Just as an update ( and in case anyone is interested) I found a seller here in the UK (ebay shop) who sends out the colour in the same kind of touch up bottle with mixing peas and thin brush as Halfords supply:

OK so I tried doing some stone chip repair today with this loew cornell nib thing... Great results and very easy to apply paint to your liking.I have just sent for one of these for doing touch ups, the chipex applicators are good too, but hoping this "Pen" takes it up a notch.
