Can you get touch up paints for MINI? If so, where and how much?

I want to tidy up stone chips and I would rather use BRG coloured paint for MINI rather than the Rover paint I've already got if possible.

Thanks

Thanks. Will check out my local Mini dealer and enquire about ordering a touch up paint.

if you are anywhere near Vardys round the east side of edin you should get a small discount of 10% as an NMS member.

The brush on the official kits is a joke, fine if you want to paint a door! The kits from Halfords are decent.

I bought a kit from a paint seller on eBay. Came with OK brushes and some fine applicator sticks. Half the price of the dealer too.

Can't agree more about the brush. I always use a cocktail stick

Me three.

I use a wooden toothpick from Boots. Or as Special Lad says, a cocktail stick will do the job waaaay better than pretty much any brush.:thumbs up:

...cocktail stick is what I have used in the past (another few to sort in the Spring). A very fine artist brush (like the ones the dudes that paint those wee fantasy figures use) maybe worth a go...:unsure:
