Fixing some Scratches/road dings, with Dr. Colorchips

1. Tools Needed

2. The Scratches

3. First Application

4. RESULTS

OVERALL, I'm ok with the product. for $50, I was able to cover the metal with color coded paint. Going to wait a week before trying another application. Up close you can still see the dings, but less noticable.

looks good.
as for the ding, I have seen miracles from paintless dent removal.
(these is a thread on that)

thanks op

I just ordered a bottle to do the family vacation mobile (04 sienna with crazy mileage and no front bra ) as the front looks like crap with all the dings..

thinking about ordering this for the fx also. If i am unable to buff a scratch out, do you think that this stuff can fill it in? I have 2-3 4inch scratches on passenger door from scraping a parking garage pole (it was shielded with plastic or else damage would have been worse).

edit

also i was wondering how long products like these typically last...

i'm worried about the work being useless after 1-2 yrs on the sienna, as i am trying to repair the front bumper

on the fx however, since its on the side would it be correct to assume that this will fix my scratches unless i hit something else?

thanks all,
pat

Wow that stuff looks like it works pretty good I may have to get some. I tried the paint pen and it wasn't a very good match.

it's actual color coded paint, so you would have to strip off the sealant/wax and reapply after you're done. Up close I can still see the dings, but good enough for me from far away
