i would buy a touch up set from VW as its cheap enough and should be a good match, my candy white set only cost me about £4.50 (from VW) and thats for paint and lacquer

You can also get spray paint sets from VW too. I'd rather stick to the VW ones as if they are a cr@p match I can give them hell :evil:

Yes, I've used a VW set from Halfords a few years ago.  Used to come in a pack with separate primer, paint & lacquer sticks plus a little pad for fine sanding.  It's good for touching up stone chips etc.  It also includes a very fine brush and also a "needle" type of rod for getting into very small chips.
