    Paint pen application guide

    The first sentence of the directions on my OEM paint pen says "refer to the application guide." Does anyone know if one actually exists? Really, I'm most interested in how long Mitsubishi recommend waiting for each layer to dry.

    I haven't heard of this. What does your dealer say?

    I'm dealing with chips and not scratches, however. But he does mention drying times, which are helpful! I've got a few clearcoat scratches to fix too, but paint isn't required for them.

    I'm kind of guessing there isn't an actual application guide, but I will bring it up to my dealer next time.

    Also, did anyone else get a paint pen with their car? I've noticed a lot of users ordering paint pens from third parties. Mine is made in Canada, so I wonder if for some reason only Canada got them.
