Any type or brand of touch up paint that anyones had really good results with? Specifically arctic white. I've got a few chips I'm tired of looking at.

Thanks in advance ZR-1 gods.

Find a local body shop that has a color gun, They can take a picture of your paint and give you an exact color match.

If C4 arctic white is close to C6 arctic white, then a very good match is VW/Audi Candy White and is available online or at the dealerships as paint pen touch ups. I was quite pleased on the match when I fixed a chip on my '08 coupe. There is also a clear pen you are supposed to buy to go along with it.

That Dr. Colorchip video shows a very interesting technique. But the product is a little pricey.
I wonder if you could try that using a regular touch up bottle, glove, and a little lacquer thinner?

I just used this for a few chips on my white 91.The color was off but since I already paid for the kit they had me send in an extra body panel for a color match,didnt cost a thing.The match is dead on and the process for this stuff is like no other paint Ive ever used.It works and is a little pricey but just how bad do you want to fix those chips?Something to keep in mind white is one of the hardest colors to match believe it or not.Theres a few Youtube videos out there of this being used.In the past Ive had color matched and mixed up at a paint shop to fix some chips but thought Id try this Colorchip process to see how it worked,Im happy with it.
