Best product for covering chips just don't expect it to be perfect, nothing is. I use it on all my cars. Best on solid colors IMO.

I just used this recently and it works pretty good even with me doing it. Do a search on here and you will get some different ways, that do work well.

I have used it and it works great. Like other have said don't expect it to be perfect but it does hide chips very well and very easy to use.

It is one of the best products or methods for taking care of paint chips. Well worth the cost and easy to use.

I have used it on four or five long (approx 14") parallel scratches on my GMC Sierra. It did a good job of covering them. I must say that they were not very deep scratches, however. I don't know whether or not the paint color makes a difference. My truck is a medium gray color.

I use it. As mentioned, not perfect, and not as easy as the directions may indicate, but better than touch up paint from a dealer. There was a thread a few weeks ago with recommendations on application that differed than the instructions that comes in the kit. Worth a search.

Works for me. used it to cover the road rash and chips that a Z06 gets in front of the rear tires. Deep imperfections require multiple applications

Doesn't work well on deep scratches. Works best on chips.
