Touch-up pens

[anonymous-user]

Some how my driver's door has developed an inch-long scratch down to the primer. I bought an Odyssey blue touch up pen from my local dealer and the resulting repeair looks pants. The paint is a completely different shade so I need to think of something else.

Question is, what's the best way to get it repaired - should I take it to my local Vauxhall dealer, an idependent body shop, or would a decent mobile detailing/chips-away/dent devils do an invisible repair?

I'm worried about the paint matching given the crap results I've had so far.

Don't forget that Odyssey and other metallics need lacquer on top of the colour touch-in. This will produce a gloss finish resulting in the correct colour match.

No it doesn't - it's closer but still looks crap. You can spot it from 20 feet away.
