Gold or brass paint touch-up pen

[playmofire]

On a number of occasions members have mentioned gold or brass touch-up pens but I can't find a reference to them despite searching for some time. I'm wanting to touch-up the edges of some loco number plates.

Sharpie is a brand name to look for.

Thank you both.

If you have a store that is what we call arts and crafts here, quite often they are in stock.

My wife uses these for her craft and I have used the gold it for brass work.

An example of using the Krylon gold one on a backhead.

Interesting, is it really 18k gold, or just a very good approximation of the color?

Wow that is a superb clean brass effect.

I don't think its is 18 carat gold but the price charge you would think so
The copper one is fairly good as well.
The wife gets them from scrapbooking and card making suppliers which is all the rage in Aust at the moment.

Precision paints have metallic brass and copper. It just needs a fine brush to touch up.

Currently, I am looking for red and white paint pens for lining but so far all I can source are inks which are not much use on a dark background. They just don’t have enough pigment plus, most are not waterproof.

Not tried them myself but might these be suitable? Seems to SAY all the right things!



That's from the Post Office website. The manufacturer's site is Paint Pens | Fine Paint Marker PX-21 - Uniball . Not available in red, though!

All the best
