Default Got Keyed - Should I Use Touch-Up Paint?
Guys
Just realized my passenger side door got a noticeable KEYED
I just got my new 02 4 months ago and now there's a big scratch
WTF are those people doing?
Should I use Honda original touch-up paint?

No, Super Street makes a special touch-up paint that reduces wind drag and can actually increase the performance of your car. I've seen people use the paint on less than 30% of their car and shave off .8 seconds of their 1/4 time.

I would def. go to a quality shop and get it repaired. In most cases touch up paint looks just as bad if not worse than the actual scratch.

I agree. I will bet you after a pro fixes it, it will look perfec. You'll forget about the keying, pretty much the the scratch is gone.
