Touch Up Paint Pen - Chili Red 851

Product Details

As your car gets older, you may start to notice chipping paint on high-contact areas such as the front bumper, valance, hood, mirrors, and more. To remedy this, Bavarian Autosport provides OE color-matched paint pens that are easy to use and offer a great finish. The pen boasts a soft felt tip and uses urethane paint to best match your BMW's factory finish. To use the pen, simply shake the pen and press down to start the paint flowing. Once the tip is soaked, "color" in the blemish as if you were using a crayon. 

Available in many common colors. Color codes can be found under the hood on the driver side strut tower, or on the underside of the hood.

Please check your color code before ordering.

NOTE: If your color is described as "metallic", the touch-up paint you receive will be metallic, too. (We just didn't have enough room to include the word "metallic" in the listing.)

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. How can I obtain the best results with my Paint Pen?

A. Always start with a clean car. Paint will not stick to dirt or wax. If you are washing your car yourself, use a natural sponge or chamois for best results. Make sure the car is dry.

Q. Why does paint sometimes flow out of the sides of the Paint Pen when I depress the tip?

A. This happens if you press the tip too hard on a surface. Remove excess from the side with a paper towel.

Q. Does the temperature make a difference when I touch up my car?

A. Yes. Never touch up your car in the direct sunlight. The ideal temperatures are between 65-80 degrees.

Q. What if I don't like what I've just done?

A. Place a small amount of paint thinner on a cotton swab. Gently wipe it over the area you just touched up. You can shine up any dulled areas later on with wax.

Q. How do I get a high gloss finish?

A. Make sure every coat is dry prior to applying another coat of paint. For an even higher gloss, you may purchase our clear coat pens from us.

Q. How should I store my Paint Pen?

A. Store the pen on its side and keep it in a cool, dry place. Never keep it in your car.
