Has anyone used anything else? Any good tips? Is there a need to put clear coat touch up after? Acuras touch up paint is suppose to have clear coat added to it so no need to touch up with with clear coat after. I don't know if that's the case for subaru/toyota.
Done a few. Just like you said use a fiber sanding pen and then the touch up paint. You will need to clear coat since the touch up is just the colour and does not seal anything.
Just take your time and get it right the first shot. Also keep in mind that no matter how good you get it you will always see it since you know it is there. Others may not find it even if they go looking.
