Default Touch up paint?

well i have a 90 mark vii and it has the dark titanium paint (YU) i have a bunch of little chips on the front of the hood and everytime i wash it i can see the bare metal. I was wondering if anyone ever did paint touch ups...which brands...advice...and will it end up blending nicely if i take my time?

Well I have done some before on my truck and sometimes it turns out ok. I finally took it to a friend and had him repaint the hood. If you have alot of spots that may be the way to go.

hmm... my main issue is money. I was looking at it today more closely and right under the headlight there is a region about 5 inches long and 3 inches tall that has a bunch of tiny little chips... i can see that causing a problem
