Anyone Tried Touch Up Paint from Sewells?
So I ordered one of those Touch Up Paint Pens from Sewells that matches factory color. Cost around $8. Anyone use these before? Just wondering how it turned out. FYI my car is a Black 06 IS350

is clearcoat required? I saw some pics of the pen online and it looks like it might be a two sided pen (clear coat / regular paint on other end) but I'm not quite sure.

Hmm. I bought the factory touch-up paint from Sewell and it was like $10 after discount and shipped with my gfx front lip. Why buy the touch up paint pen? Is there a difference?
The Lexus touch-up paint can also be used like a pen. The top side is ball-bearing tip and can be used like a pen as long as you remove the orange stopper inside. The inside is the regular brush.

The t/pearl touch up paint is kinda darker then
the paint on car.
But, If you gotta use it rather then painting
entire surface where needed it's ok..

How is it for rock chips?
I've got a few in the Starfire Pearl that'd I like to clean up.
NO, I didn't get a clear bra, but if your car is brand new you should!
Even thinking about having the few chips professionally repaired and then a clear bra, but what the hell, an excuse for new paint somewhere down the road.
