BMW Touch Up Paint Sticks

Garage scratched up the front right bumper. Nothing terrible, just a couple of minor not-deep scratches. Thinking of ordering their OEM paint sticks. Have any of you used these things before? Is it easy to apply?

Just wondering if I\'ll end up doing more harm than good.

Thanks everyone.

They come in a set with the paint in one bottle and clear coat in another. If you don't have a very stable hand and good eyes it can be tricky to do a really good job. I've noticed our alpine white hood is a chip magnet so I've painted quite a few chips. I found that using a toothpick works pretty well. I've never touched up a chip with the included brush.

Also, once you get the paint on there if you don't like it you can quickly wipe it up so you have a minute before it gets really dry.
