Touch-up paint options?

[Haggisman]

As my lease is up in a few months, I'm looking at options to tidy up a few paint issues to avoid any end-of-lease charges, but I'm not sure what type of paint would be best to get; the options being pen/spray/pot.

I have the following types of damage which appear to be outside of the BVRLA fair wear and tear:

Damage to rear bumper ~8mm across:

Couple of sections where paint has flaked off the plastic trim on the roof bars like this:

Couple of very light scratches:

Unfortunately these all appear like they would be best suited to a different type - e.g. the bumper damage touched up from a pot using a brush, the larger sections on the roof bars being sprayed, and the scratches with a pen - however I'd rather avoid buying 3x the paint if it could be done with just 1!

Any recommendations, and also on brands to use/avoid?

Sent the wifes 11yr old (don't ask, she can't be reasoned with......) lease Clio back earlier this year, the bill was eye watering (as was the state of the car.....), she was going to pay but i thought nothing lost/nothing gained if i tried to get some of the charges reduced.

Went from approx £2k to £77...........Still waiting for the thankyou from her!...

Might be worth just getting a chips away person out.

Surely unless it's very good repair whoever is inspecting the vehicle (presumably with a magnifying glass...) will just notice it all anyway?

The plastic trim on the roof bars can be removed and fully resprayed, so assuming the paint I get is a good match then those should be pretty undetectable, but yes with the chips/scratches then quite possibly

Sand lightly and rattle can it just before you take it back
