Primer and paint pen

I used the primer pen and dabbed the primer on from the included card. After pushing the nib/ felt tip down onto the card and a small pool of primer collected quickly.
Same for the paint pen, except it was much thicker and even after shaking the pen continuously, after 5 mins, it was hard to get to paint flowing out. Running out or drying? But the paint color was a spot on match!
I didn't bother with the clear coat. I'll compound it to smooth it out. Then wax.
