damn black spots on my silver because of chips

i got so much damn black spots on my car because the paint chips....i bought some touch up paint and this damn thing is darker than the real colour of the car
i wonder if i put it on wrong because when i was trying to dab it to cover the chips but the damn thing wont stay in the chip ....
how do you really get this touch up paint onto the car properly to match the colour of the car

i got a 2k2 Silver sedan ......

i wanna get those specs covered up ASAP ...

just shake the paint really well and dap it onto the desired area. You need to keep the paint in a cool place otherwise the color can alter. I don't suggest using it on the front of your car unless it is a really big chip. If you cover all the spots the hood will look even worse cause you'll then have little dab marks everywhere. The best thing to do is wait and eventually get a paint job, or maybe just your hood. It happens to all cars, especially mine since I have a black coupe. Everything shows up. It sucks but then that's life. I wish there was a better solution.

I think the bra's are ugly but then it's all in the eye of the beholder. The bra will protet against some chips, but not all and you really have to be careful with them. If you drive with them in the rain marks can be left on your car. If your car is dirty and they stay on hazing car occur beneath the bra. They can also trap pebbles or other elements (including water) that can hurt your cars paint while moving. Either way there are draw backs for both, using a bra and not. I would personally suck it up and drive my car, infact I do.

Well I have a Full Bra on the front of my car and it does protect the front mostly but still I forgot to take it off a couple of times when it got wet and yep my paint is faded and foggy under it in a few spaces and on the side there are flap marks from it flappin down the road. In Arizona it doesn't rain much but the sand here is murder too and the sun which will turn 2 colors on your car.
