Unnoticeable from a distance
For small chips and scratches, it's worth getting! Granted I'm not at all a professional auto body person, but I even tried it on a corner of my 1997 Toyota Tacoma pickup bed. The plastic liner had rubbed out the paint over the years, so the bare metal was showing about 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" size. After adding the paint on, it's hardly noticeable from far, even from just a step away you can barely see it. That was just the first coat and yet I haven't even tried to sand it down to put another coat on along with the clear coat. If you want to save money and want to do it yourself, this is definitely the way to go! Granted on how big the area you need covered and how really anal you are with the looks of your vehicle.

Easy to use.
It's easy to use and it stays on. You're supposed to apply it in thin layers to match up the unevenness from the scratched off paint, but I found just one application was fine. I mainly used the pen, but you have to press a little harder for the paint to come out, just like those old white out pens that were popular a while back. I would use the brush to even the paint out since it would come out in a blotch with the pen. From far away, my car looks flawless again, but I'm sure if I applied more layers, it would look even better.

Looks like Bird Poo or Whiteout
This is a review for the Dupli-Color TY01607 Natural White Toyota.This product is definitely just OK.Here's the bottom line: do you have a couple scratches that your buddy and see from 20 feet away? Put this on them and from 20 feet away, he won't see anything. HOWEVER, when your buddy walks up to your truck from the 6t foot range, he'll say, "Some bird poo on your Toyota? What is that? Did you use whiteout on this thing?!?"It's the best I could find. It works OK. I wish it was seamless but I guess that's called getting a new paint job. For the price, it's probably the best out there.Good luck.

Paint is great, applicator not so much
The paint was an excellent match for my car and worked great, but I used another much finer brush to apply it. The brush that comes with it is far too big for anything but coin-sized chunks out of your paint and I was repairing tiny rock chips. The pen tip is exactly that.. a metal roller-ball pen. I fail to see how scraping a piece of metal against an already damaged surface can be good for it so I didn't even try that. I used Rust Bullet instead of primer and it seemed to adhere well to that.

DO NOT BUY THIS CRAP!!
This made my car look way worse than it did before I tried to fix the scratches by using this paint because it does not match at all to the official color "Desert Sand Mica Toyota 402". You can see pics of what the paint looked on my car here (for those too lazy to click, it looks like complete crap!): https://www.dropbox.com/sh/inpsc86q5n7vrkc/AAD5RRJHtF7EO9RYYaDllWheaNote: Seller (Evans Toyota) was very apologetic and immediately offered a refund. They did eventually admit that the the product batch of paint may have been "off" (but only after first informing me that I shouldn't expect a 100% exact match when unevenly hand painting, using just this product without wet sanding,buffing, using clear coats, etc, and having an old car with paint that would be appear faded by sun-exposure--- none of which would explain why the paint color of the product I received is clearly silver/grey in the pictures of my car, as opposed to the beige-ish color of the car). For what it's worth, they also offered to order me the official color from Toyota. My advice would be to just order the official color from Toyota anyways, since it's the same price and you would assume a much better match than this "replicate" product. IF you want the official totyota paint, simply search this code in the Amazon search bar: B0060C5SDG

Not much cheaper than factory touch up from the dealer
We bought this because the dealer said they would have to order this color for us, and that it might take 10 days to get. We own a car lot and needed it before that, so we decided to try this out. The color match seemed ok, but honestly not quite as good, and not quite the quality as the factory touch up, in spite of claims otherwise. That shouldn't come as a surprise, I suppose. I would buy it again, but only under the same circumstances; if the dealer has the color you need in the time frame that you need it, you should buy the factory touch up.

Exact match for an Ibanez Gio Mikro guitar in Jewel Blue.
This little touch up paint is an exact match for an Ibanez Gio Mikro guitar in Jewel Blue. The finish on a guitar is very similar to the finish on a car. There are only a few guitar manufacturers that offer touch up paint for their colors.. So.. if you need to match, you often have to mix your own -- this is a nice find and really made my boy's chipped guitar look like new again. Amazingly enough, some bondo, and a series of high grit sandpaper to level and polish, you cant even tell there was a 1 inch chip taken out of the guitars body.Worth every penny. Unless you are looking for that "Road worn" look!

It works, nice design, but the color was a little off in my opinion.
Well, I had the exact same product and ran out. I purchased this one to finish the bumper re-touch. This one, when dry doesn't match my car as well, it doesn't shine as well. I am perplexed as the two containers are identical and both have the same product code. I shook both well. But this one has produced cover of the (large) spots, but just doesn't shine and look as good as the earlier product.
