Touch up paint question

[Robert Blunt]

Hello everyone, 

A couple of years ago I was able to get a pristine red Saluki which I promptly chipped on the top tube with free swinging drop bars. Does anyone have one of these and have you had to do touch up work on it? I tried a red testors enamel but it's too dark. and I would like to get a better approximation of the color in either nail polish or model paint. I have attached a photo.

Best,

@Robert, 

I suggest that you take your bike to a professional commercial painters shop in your area to have them do a paint match and put it into a small can for you to touch up for now and save the rest for later.

Sound advice.  And, money well spent.  Good paint will last a long time.

I am actually going to be at a paint correction detailing shop later this evening for my car. Great suggestion.
