Touch-up pens are available at general automotive supply stores. The owner can report their car model and official color name to purchase a touch-up pen with the appropriate color code. If the scratches and dents left after the front bumper of the car is hit do not show signs of peeling or paint chipping, it is necessary to go to a 4S store for repair.
Hey, last time I scratched the plastic paint on my car's front bumper and was pretty worried at first, but I managed to fix it myself. First, park the car securely and wipe off the dust with a damp cloth to ensure no dirt affects adhesion. Check how deep the scratch is—if it's shallow, just buy a car-specific touch-up pen and apply it; if it's deep, you'll need to lightly sand it with sandpaper, fill it with putty, then spray paint to match the color. Keep your hand steady while spraying to avoid unevenness. Finally, apply a layer of clear coat for protection against fading. After the fix, it looked almost new, but beginners shouldn’t rush—take your time to save money. When driving, keep a safe distance from walls to avoid bumps. Plastic parts are prone to scratches, but with good care, they last longer.
