Hello, I am looking for a recommendation on where to buy a good touch up paint. The color is SS1 Sunfire Yellow on a '68 Dart. We are simply trying to take care of some small chips. Thanks!

We're going to try a pen or brush for this. They're small chips that my wife just wants to keep from becoming a rust issue down the road.

I have never had very much luck using the Pens. They do not fill in the scratches well. I bought a paint nibbler, https://www.amazon.com/Mirka-MINF-Denibbing-File/dp/B00XN2CRAS and use the brush. Overfill the scratch (multi-pal layers as needed), file down, wet sand and hand polish.

67vertman, I'll give that a try. Thanks for the advice. Go easy with the nibbler and take your time. I used tape around the area on the first couple of times using it. Once you get the hang of how it cuts it gets easier.
