Chipped column radiator - touching it up to invisible finish

[Twentyfour7]

Hi All

Please see photo

Does anyone know the best way to touch up this column rad. I am going to contact Myson for their touch up paint but I was wondering how to get the best finish and whether I would need to prime it.

The paint has been chipped off by heavy object down to the metal. I am wondering whether to build up the paint in layers with a small paint brush. I expect they are sprayed in the factory

I find piston heads brilliant for tips so would be grateful for any advice

Cheers

Thanks guy's, hadn't thought of either of those options!

Re DIY and finding a paint that to spray, unsure will get a colour match... I think unlikely manufacturer will supply the original rad colour in a spray
