Did any of y`all see yesterday`s (14 Feb) Wall Street Journal article on "A Do-It-Yourself Facelift For The Car"? They reviewed 5 car scratch kits available on-line and/or from local retailers. Dr Colorchip Custom Auto Touch-Up Custom Paint Kit was the best as rated by them. I`ve never seen this one. What scratch repair kit/method is your favourite?

Bump...



I am trying to decide whether to use Colorchip. I`ve used Langka in the past with good results, but curious if anybody has experience with Colorchip?

^^^BUMP as well



I have a bunch of scratch and chips I am looking to repair. I am tossing up a few ideas...



I might try using Scratch X or 3M (what do you prefer) and then a finishing polish (by hand) first to see if that works...



I have also been tossing up the idea of using that Quixx system...I have heard some good reveiws..



Lastly I might try following the scratch repair walk through by Dave...but that is a long process.



All you experts out there need to post on this:help:

Accumulator has been known to use (at least parts of) the Langka kit.



This thread http://www.autopia.org/forum/click-brag/70028-small-how-chip-repair-wetsanding-spring-cleaning-black-g35-56k-owie.html is the best information on paint repair you`ll be able to find anywhere, IMO. That thread should be in the Hall of Fame.
