    CHEAP auto touch-up paint

    I've been searching for touch-up paint for the MX5 and my Accord and the prices are off the chart.
    Then as my lovely wife was doing her nails it hit me, why not nail polish?? Well it costs a lot less, less
    than $5 bucks for two small bottles and I was able to match my paint colors nearly perfectly.
    (Brilliant Black for the Miata Basque Red on the Accord) No idea on the durability yet but for practically nothing who cares.

    As a purist I can do nothing but OEM. I found this for you, Genuine Honda for $14.

    A Surgeon a couple of blocks away from us when I was a kid had a Very Rare Ferrari (one of 12 built)! His son nicked the paint when he decided to get something out of the attic somehow. The Surgeon went to the local hardware store and bought model paint to touch it up!!! My Dad was a friend of his and always LOVED telling the story. The Surgeon was one of the nicest men I ever knew.
