    your car is ten years old (or older) now, so matching old to new paint won't result in perfect results.
    Having said that, I bought the touch up paint from Holden for less than $15 and it looks better than chips, some chips only go down to the white undercoat.
    A lot of people say that the supplied brush is too coarse, so buy a finer one somewhere else.
    Have a look at 'how to fix those little scratches' in the how to section and you will be laughing

    because your car is around ten years old sun and weather and change your paint you should chip a little paint off where there is a scatch and get it matched but you cant get it perfict you have to get it sprayed and blended to get it perfict
