I have used both the pen and the brush. I like the brush better even for the smallest rock chip. I find the pen too hard to put on evenly while a brush you can control how much you put on.

I’ve never had good luck with the ballpoint touch up tips.
I prefer buying inexpensive fine tip paint brushes in the craft aisle at Walmart. I Clean them up after every use with paper towel and paint thinner. The brushes have nice sleeves to keep the bristles straight and true.
Now if I could just get my tri-coat pearl white paint to blend/match the original paint:(
When that happens with me...I let the paint dry for a while until it is just dry enough (kind of tacky, but a pin won't go in too easily), and then swipe it with a real thin fabric (actually, I have been using these makeup cloth removers, but have used old cotton t-shirts) wrapped around a somewhat pliable foam block, soaked with a bit of paint thinner (or mineral spirits).
If I'm careful enough, it removes the high spots, without affecting the fill. If the paint hasn't cured enough, though, I wind up taking off the fill itself, but then it's just easy to start over from scratch again.

I have that paint pen and I personally love it. Works great on multiple tiny chips. But the Artist brush works good to just depends on your price point. I also used tooth picks.
How about a fine eye dropper? I think a little wet sanding my be needed filling a chip that big.
