I used it on my old car and it worked just as advertised. As long as it isn't excessively deep it'll fill in any scratch or chip and will be nearly unnoticeable. You would have to remember the precise location to find the flaw.

I found on a couple of larger, deeper chips, it wouldn't stick (it would rub off when you are wiping off the extra), but in that case you can use it as you would a normal touch-up paint. It won't come out perfect, but still 1000x better than a more noticeable paint chip.

I saved a ton of money on my car because it had loads of paint chips. I just bought a touch up paint from the dealer and it did a reasonable job for only $12 or so. Painted the bad spots then applied a clear coat from pep boys which was like $6. That minor effort for saving $k's made me smile.
