Touch-Up Paint Questions
Would like to do something about the small white flecks on my brilliant black car, but I'm not sure how much it would cost.
The flecks are deep enough to catch my fingernails, but very small. However, there are a bunch of 'em and its annoying having them there. All I need is a little bit of paint, any idea how much it would cost from the dealer?
Also, does this sound like the kind of thing I can do myself or would I need to take it to a body shop?

it's around 20 dollar from dealer
it comes with 2 bottle, one color and one clear coat. don't use the clear coat, the color won't match if you use the clear coat.
I didn't want to mess up the touch up so I had a detail shop did a full detail on my car and they cover the touch up for free.
You might wanna call around and see how much they'll charge for touch up.

yes you should
wash it with some dish soap to get rid of the wax, then touch up the paint, and give it nice wax to protect it.
I'm no expert, but you can also ask on the detailing forum.
Black2001S4 is right, don't use those brush came with the touch up paint, they're very low quality brush and hard to control.
