Touch up paint for damaged/scratched side art

[Lukey13]

Hopefully posting this in the right place, but what do people recommend as a good product to use as touch up paint for damaged or scratched side art on cabinets and how do you guys go about finding colours that match well?

Having seen some of TNT arcades YouTube videos they seem to nail it and get their artworks looking great!

The only thing that springs to my mind right now is coloured nail varnishes, but not so sure if these would be the best thing to apply on vinyl side art..

I've used acrylic paint pens to decent success, Michael's and Hobby Lobby have sections of them.

You can use paint markers, testors paint, acrylic paints, etc. also if it's a certain color and you can peel a small piece you can get it color matched at Home Depot.

I have found using a little white oil base paint as an undercoat before adding colors above tends to make the patch job look a lot better.

Brilliant, great ideas and thanks very much for all the replies

If anyone has any other tricks they'd be happy to share please do!

I've always used Citadel Acrylic Paints. They are designed for miniatures (Think Dungeons and Dragons) However i can buy it from my local gamestore and can mix the colors to exactly what i want them to be. I follow up with a clear coat.

Or i just reprint them. Lol Having access to a wide format printer a lot of times i'm feeling too lazy to paint and just go for the repro route.
