Re: Dr. ColorChip
I didn't take any pictures. Imagine this though, a car with rock chips (black dots on a white car), then a car without chips (no black dots on a white car)!
:lol: No gross paint blobs either like you'd get from a typical touch-up brush. If you use the squeegee right, the touch-up will be barely visible since its level and fills the chip in completely. Hopefully Pat gets some pictures for you guys since he seems to enjoy photography. |

Re: Dr. ColorChip
I'll get you guys pictures and video possibly when I get my kit in. Might be better than the ol' potato camera phone.

Re: Dr. ColorChip
I got another bottle of the chip repair paint ordered. The white still seems fine from last year, but I wanted to also get it in Carbon Flash to repair the inevitable chips the splitter and sideskirts are going to get (yup, they already have a few). They warn that the metallic and pearl paints won't match as perfectly as solid colors, but it looks pretty dang close to me. Speaking of pearl, if I ever get the Volt back from the bodyshop I'll have to get a bottle ordered for that car too...

Re: Dr. ColorChip
Hey-zoos you still don't have that thing back?

Re: Dr. ColorChip
Nope, been over 2 months now. It was hit in late-February.

Re: Dr. ColorChip
I did the Corvette again today and continue to be impressed with this kit! I did white on the front bumper, a mirror, and a rocker. I then did the black carbon flash metallic on the sideskirt and front splitter and everything turned out great; matched perfectly. I might give it a try on the Volt tomorrow morning.

Re: Dr. ColorChip
I got the Volt done yesterday and am satisfied, but as they said, the tri-coat pearl won't be a perfect match with a single stage touch-up. It's "close enough" and definitely a whole lot better than a bare metal or primer rock chip! It's close enough that the small stone chips on the front bumper have basically become invisible.

Re: Dr. ColorChip
Which kit do you use? The squeegee kit or just the standard brush and wipe off kit?
|
Re: Dr. ColorChip
The Squirt N Squeegee kit is what I bought for the 'Vette, then for the Volt I just bought the little bottle of refill paint to use with the kit I already had. They claim the paint has a shelf life of 1 year, but my Corvette white bottle is 1 1/2 years old now and still worked fine.
