Never use the brush if supplied with your touch-up paint. For thin scratches use a ball point pen dip in the the paint a little and just follow the line slowly. For stone chips with basic touch-up you should use a tooth pick applying small amounts at a times until the new paint is level with the old paint. re-painting the area w/ the stone chips is the best way - but usually expensive.

**Black color cars** - get yourself a black fine point SHARPIE marker. Works great for stone chips. It does wash off after a few months, but is simple to do again

Using the marker on other colors works ok, it's really hard for it to match the paint.

If you must use the brush trim the brush hairs. See what works for you start off by removing 50%. 1 brissel works the best - takes longer.
