well one rule of thumb is use as little as possible then apply more if needed, cause it will appear as if you touched it up and if you put too much on it will be blotty and thats sometimes worse than the scratch itself...

clean the surface
apply the t/u with the little brush (small smal amount)
let it dry
clean surface again

store in room temp area and keep it away from kids...

we used to be sneaky at my old shop....touch it up, then wet sand it a lil to smooth it, the buff the hell out of it te make it "disappear" but that's not good for the paint...
