How to fix a paint chip on your car using an AC Delco touch-up paint pen
Переглядів 75 тис.4 роки тому
If you love your car like I do, but have little to no experience on fixing paint chips then you’ll want to watch this video. I show how I did it and things I messed up while doing it so hopefully you don’t make the same mistakes! Enjoy!

I wanted to get a little more in depth about the delete since it is a great and easy way to really get the most out of that V8. I hope you enjoy! Be sure to subscribe and follow me on Instagram @Covett_19 for more content!
Helpful. Thank you!
Bro where did you get this done at…..
Thanks for the vid. Very helpful!
Deron, I am just watching your video which says it was four years ago. My question for you is if you had to do it today Would you do anything different? just curious. by the way, I think you did a great job!
Thank You ! 6/17/2024
Thank you. Great video!
Thank you. Helped alot
Great vid thanks!
Couple of things, the valves you had are the AFM valves not to be mistaken with NPP valves which are directly behind the tips. Second dyno testing has proven 10 hp with a muffler delete. Which is marginal, but I’ll take 10hp as a byproduct. Do you still have it and like it, or did you move to an actual exhaust?
keep the paper towel out of the touch up paint or clear coat. you can build it high with clear and polish it down with some ultra fine compound.
Great video brother. Thanks. I have a yellow C-7 Z0-6.
Best way to remove this? The clear coat globbed up way more than I wanted
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
is the car still loud when u enter stealth mode?
Thanks for doing this video it was true life example 👍
Thanks, I have a 2019 elkhart blue that I just bought the pen for. I have a chip at the botton of my door. hopefully I can do it right. We love our vettes
Thanks for sharing your experience applying the ac-delco touch up paint kit. You most likely prevented others from doing it incorrectly. Your Corvette is awesome ! understand your desire to keep it looking great. again much appreciated !
Thank upo
Calm down Bro. I know the feeling.... I stopped the video to say this. ha
Thanks so much for doing this video! I got a big chip on a red truck I owned a day and the body shop wanted $1,600 to fix. I appreciate you volunteering your Corvette for this tutorial.
i'm holding this touchup pen that I just purchased from Chevrolet and was quaking in my boots about applying it to my Camaro. You're doing gods work man. Made total sense once I could see it, especially the lessons you learned along the way. i'm wondering if the final coat of paint (was it the third or maybe the fifth coat on your vehicle?) should instead be the clearcoat pen, to bring it to flush. I'm reticent to share that question though because frankly you nailed it. going to head into my garage now and do it. I'll follow up with an edit/outcome.
Did anyone ever tell him about that other spot?
Actually looks better than I expected it too.
do you not understand where shadow's come from ? WTF
Didn’t do shit lol
The valves you see are the AFM valves, provides back pressure when using eco mode. Nothing to do with volume.
You could've bought it cheaper on Amazon
Thanks Man, for taking the anxiety completely out of this job for me.
Sorry, what liquid did you put before using the product?
I just used rubbing alcohol
Thank you for sharing your experience with this product. It was a great job and an excellent result... You have a great car that deserves your attention. Have a nice day
Not for nothing, but i truly enjoyed the video, usually i just go to the parts i wanna see. I also figured it your gonna try this on your baby, then I'll try it on mine,. And mines not a vette. Good video thanks for taking the time.
Thank you.
I’ve been lagging it but not anymore, thanks for the vid bro, I did it to a 5.0 mustang coyote engine and it sounded great, then I traded that mustang for my C7 all bone stock and I need that flavor man, I was procrastinating cause ppl would tell me I had to by like a tune or something or it’ll trigger my check engine light 🤦🏻♂️😂😂
Neeevver use paper towel on paint
Hi, I will be attempting to use one of these touchup paint pen kits in the near future. What should I use to wipe the paint if I need to do so? Thanks!
That’s a really cool car and I feel your pain I just fixed my paint chip after watching your video and I never fixed one either mine turned out the same thanks for the helpful video
Awesome job thanks for the video
I got a 2017 stingray and I've been wanting to do this for about 2 years now but scared that removing the npp valves will cause a check engine light to go off. Do you know if it will?
I don’t know, but I have a 2016 stingray and pulled exhaust fuse #42. No more npp valve closing and no check engine light. So I’m assuming if I delete the muffler and the npp valves there won’t be a check engine light. I’m going to get my muffler deleted soon, which is why I’m watching this video!
I haven’t had any issues at all.
NPP valves don't trigger CEL, but the AFM valves do.
Can you send me a link of this paint item? Can’t find it it Amazon or Walmart
By the way I have the same color and model of corvette :)
Awesome! I love the color! I got it from an actual Chevy dealership. They color match with the vin
For this reason I think it's worth installing a "clear bra" (i.e., clear rock chip film) as it's nearly impossible to keep the front of a vehicle rock chip free unless you don't drive it.
I have a black pen on order to touch up a scratch on the headlight of my 94 vette. It was touched up once but still looks bad. I’m hoping to make it disappear. I have quite a bit of experience fixing scratches on airplane furniture so we’ll see if it will be helpful for automotive purposes. 🤞
Don’t know what you was worried about you did a good job man 👍🏾
A decent wetsand, compound and polish will make it like new. Nice work though. Looks great. My dark blue Silverado shows all chips and touch up paint has been a big go to
That touch-up job isn't perfect but it gets the job done. A couple hundred bucks to repaint the whole hood? The tax alone would cost a couple hundred bucks. Then after repainting the hood, you could end up getting another paint chip on it. I just got a paint pen for my 2007 Impala and it will be good enough for the 4-inch long scratch on the trunk. It will be good enough compared to what it looks like now.
Thank you so much for this video. I am going to try it on my dodge caravan😀 did you do anything else to it after this video?
I feel your pain! I got a rick chip on the lower front ground effects right were it peaks on my drive home from the delearship. Also a 2019 Vette.
Saw a video with a rubbing compound after final paint coat and after the clear coat will get that smooth look ? I’ll let you know . Video was very helpful specially seeing I didn’t even realize a clear coat was included in the pen . Great video . Thanks again
Where did you order the muffler delete kit from
That helped allot. Thanks for filming this. I'm gonna be giving this a try to. Beautiful Car. 🔥
Nice job! One thing you can do buy some compound polisher rub into it after you apply the clear coat to smooth it out.
