Can Mobile Phones, Cameras, And Glasses Frames Be Filled With Paint Pens?

Dec 15, 2022

Can I touch up the paint with a paint pen? This frequently asked question is answered here.

          Phones, cameras, spectacle frames, etc. are peeling paint and refilling colors, which is the most common problem that everyone encounters. As for whether it will work, I can definitely reply to everyone: it is not recommended to use it.

         As for why? Let me tell you this, because the surface treatment process is different, whether it is a mobile phone, a camera, or a mirror frame, these surfaces are all treated by electroplating, so the gloss and uniformity cannot be achieved with a paint pen. The two most important points are chromatic aberration and convexity. Because the paint pens on the market currently do not have a color similar to electroplating, there is a large color difference. In addition, paint pens generally have a convex three-dimensional effect when written, so the bumps are uneven after filling. Maybe it will be more obvious after patching.

         Of course, the above is not suitable for fine craftsmanship, such as some furniture, doors and windows, hardware decoration, and paint pens can achieve good results. Especially with gold paint pens, silver paint pens, gold and silver, you can achieve a different metallic luster, DIY decoration to show a different style of home.
