Yeah, good luck with that - it's next to impossible to hit the metal flake in it. Personally I'd paint it black.

I'm not hating on Color Rite. It is a nightmare to use. Leave the damn scratch on there or paint the whole piece, even the other side if you need symmetry.

I let the base pen cure over night, hit it with with the clear pen, and it all smeared everywhere, also infecting the clear coat pen. I cannot comment on their paint in cans or air gun formula.

A nightmare.

House of kolor could come out with a pen and I wouldn't use it. They are fine for covering up a scratch so it doesn't rust but IMO thats about it.

Yea, the pen isn't going to really hide anything.
