Tell me about it! Never used the stuff before and just followed directions. I used it on other parts of my car. Probably did about 50-60 spots and still have over half the bottle of paint left. Stuff is amazing.

You can't go wrong with this! I did my hood a few months ago and such a huge difference. I haven't gotten around to my bumper (which is covered in rock chips) but I'm going to get on that asap!

I think it blends more on darker colored cars; not as noticeable as light colored ones.

When I use it, I follow the directions by applying the paint & wiping smooth with my thumb.
Then I wait 5 minutes or so & then use the solution 'only on the areas surrounding the chip' (ie the good remaining clearcoat) and pay attention to not get the solution in the chip itself. This method works well for me. And using multiple coats really works well

I think it's okay to rub the excess paint removing solution over all the areas you worked on, including the chips. That's how they do it in the tutorial. I think the main thing is to let the paint sit for about 5 minutes before lightly rubbing off the excess.

From what I've gathered is:

-Works better on darker cars than lighter cars. They've gotten pretty good about matching 3-stage paint. Here's a link about them fixing a pearl white Rav4.

-Works better on "road rash" then deep pits. So if your bumper/hood has just this sprinkling of white marks that are not very deep, it will work really well on them. However, very deep chips will be covered so they're not an eyesore from afar, but you will still be able to see the chip.

-Best to work with this on a sunny, warm day. From the few reviews I've seen, they had great results when working in a hotter condition.

-When removing the paint, you could use a soft CLOTH rather that a microfiber. Some people state that a microfiber may lap up too much of the paint from the chip.

-Your order of paint correction should go like this: Wash, Clay, Polish/Compound, Dr. Color Chip
OR
If your car is already swirl/scratch free (or you just don't really care), just wash and dry the car and in the area that you will be filling the chips, clay bar and ensure all older wax is removed.

-Give it a week for the paint to cure before you wash, wax, or use a random orbital buffer with foam pad on the area. Wait a month before using a rotary and wool pads.

Here is a nice link to someone's before/during/after on autogeek forums.
