Touch up paint option

I have been really upset with the tiny paint chips that appear around our front ends and front part of our quarters. I think this could be an answer without putting blobs of T/U on or getting the car repainted.

Has anyone ever tried this before?

I bought this for two cars in my family, works much better and it especially leaves a cleaner finish than a touch up stick. Big chips may need a couple coats, but once I clay bar'd the car and zaino'd it, I was hardpressed to find where the used to be. Overall, its not going to provide a flawless repair, nothing really will (except a new paint job), but well worth the premium over dealer paint stick IMHO... absolutely no globbing

I had one of those paint pens that also had the brush in it for my white pearl subaru and it was alright. I started to get rust on the body from the paint chips so I had to file it down with the dremmel tool then use a few coats of the paint overtop. It was ok for the time being. The car was smashed to bits so I didn't actually have worry about it after 3 winters!
