Does anybody recommend a certain brand? I'm leaning towards buying color rite. I think I'm just going to purchase an aerosol can. The damage is too much for using a touch up brush bottle, but not really enough damage to spend more $ and take the time to use a spray gun. Does anybody know of a company that has good deals on paint? The color rite brand 2oz brush bottles are around $20, $30 for an 11oz spray can, and 1/2 pints are around $75. I need yellow and base. Is there an equivalent base that I can buy somewhere for cheaper? I don't want to change the color of my bike at this time because my gear matches and the damage is not that bad. If I'm gonna spend more than $150 though, then I'm gonna change my color scheme, design new graphics, and customize. I have an '02 CBR, color code Y163P, Pearl Flash Yellow. Thanks for any helpful feedback.

just ask a woman, they got every shade of nail polish... haha

i say if you get tons of bottom chips - just repaint (yourself if you got a sprayer).. compared to painting my car, this is like a walk in a park

wish i had a site for touch up paint, but if it's really just one nick or chip just get your wife/mom anyone that gets their nails dones all the time, they know color matching
