Fox touch up paint

Anyone know where to get some? Emailed Fox direct but haven't heard back yet. Is there a particular shade of the automotive touch-up pens that will closely match the Fox white, or is universal white close enough? Not looking for perfection, just adequate for 5ft away.

Thanks

Visit your local model store, they have all sorts of paint colours, you'll be able to find something that matches.

Indeed. Stick with Enamels (I like the Testors brand) and buy a couple of white tones and a clear coat. Do a test on a similar colour to the finish under the chip with the different whites then mix the tones to get closer. I usually then mix up a complete touch-up bottle. You can easily get to 90% with whites.

As far as I know, Fox doesn't offer it. The posts above are likely your best bet.
