Honda Modern Steel Metallic Touch-Up Paint Pen NH797M (.44 fl oz) — OEM color match, easy precision repairs

Genuine Honda Modern Steel Metallic (NH797M) touch-up paint pen for accurate, long-lasting scratch repairs on compatible Honda finishes.

This compact .44 fl oz paint pen contains factory-matched Modern Steel Metallic (paint code NH797M) formulated by Honda to help restore small chips and scratches. It’s designed to deliver a close color match and consistent coverage for spot repairs so you can preserve your vehicle’s appearance between professional repaints. The pen format makes it easy to control application on narrow areas like door edges, bumpers, and trim.

How precise is the color match for Modern Steel Metallic NH797M?

The paint is produced to the manufacturer’s color formula, aiming to closely match Honda’s Modern Steel Metallic finish. While light, age, and clearcoat differences can slightly alter appearance, this OEM product provides a better match than generic paints.

• Factory color formulation for NH797M
• Pre-mixed for consistent hue and metallic flake
• Best results on vehicles with well-maintained clearcoat

What surfaces and scratch sizes can this pen repair?

Best suited for small chips, nicks, and thin scratches on painted panels. The pen’s tip and fluid volume allow targeted application for localized damage but are not intended for full-panel resprays or deep structural repairs.

• Ideal for door edges, fender chips, and bumper scuffs
• Effective on surface-level paint loss and minor abrasion
• Not meant for rust repair or dented panels

How do I apply the touch-up paint pen for neat results?

Clean the area, remove loose paint, and apply thin layers, allowing drying between coats. Use a steady hand or masking to maintain crisp edges; finish with a compatible clearcoat if needed for added gloss and protection.

• Clean and degrease repair site before painting
• Apply several thin passes rather than one heavy coat
• Allow recommended drying time and consider clearcoat topcoat

How durable is the repair once the paint cures?

When applied correctly, the OEM-grade paint provides lasting coverage and resistance to everyday wear. Durability depends on surface preparation, drying conditions, and whether a clearcoat was applied afterward for UV and abrasion protection.

• High-quality formulation improves longevity over generic pens
• Best performance with proper prep and clearcoat sealing
• Regular washing and waxing help maintain finish
