Default Pen or Bottle?

Do you guys/Christy <-- get your touch up paint in a bottle or in a long pen? I got my Suzuka Blue touch up paint in a pen a few months ago. I went back to try and get the pen style for Spa Yellow for Mark in Seattle but then they said they do not have any touch up paint in a pen style. So what the heck am I putting on my car?

On a side note, the bottled touch-ups are much better than the pens if you want the perfect touch-up. It takes more time, but is definately worth it if you're a detailing freak like me.

The ultimate is still Rick Heasel's air brush technique.

Air brush is hard to master for most people. I use it alot for modeling, but I wouldn'twant to go through all that hassle of cleaning the air brush afterwards. The car is so big, and alight imperfection is barely noticeable. I've touched up about 8 chips on my hood and fenders, but I can't find 6 of them anymore.
