How well do those touchup paint pens work?

I'm pretty much inquiring about which touchup paint product works best... I ran into paintscratch.com

ANYBODY w/ any suggestions on which will work best? I'm just looking to mask up some scrapes on the near underside of my front lip

paintscratch.com is quite good. They pretty much send you a perfect match.

Depending on how big your scratch is i would think. I ended up getting the clearcoat also, but if its small and on the underside of the lip like you said it may not matter much if it has clear coat. But then it would not hurt either!

Id rather do it myself even if it doesnt look that good because its not that noticable.

If the scratch is really 2" WIDE, I would think you would need to get the spray cans. Use the color and the clear and be sure to do a final wetsand.
