Touch Up paint.
Well, it depends on what you are trying to do with it. If you're looking to spray the paint like a pro I recommend using DuPont's Chroma system. I've used it on quite a few cars and my own screw and it flows very well and comes out looking original. However if you're just trying to touch up some small dings or scratches with a small brush I always use... Fingernail polish. ( I know). But many people don't realize that the touch up paint you buy at the local auto parts store is very quick drying and also quite thick which means that when you apply it it will leave a clumpy spot on your finish. Using a close (doesn't have to be exact) color to your factory paint finger nail polish actually flows out smoother and isn't as noticeable when done. Always clean the area prior to touch ups. ( I use a Q tip and alcohol so I know that the wax is removed). Good Luck!
