That's a load of crack!

I got this stuff and it works pretty well.

I am probably going to use that for the light chipping I have on my hood/nose. But for this one I probably need a good bit of touch up paint.

You get a good sized can of paint with the kit. Probably more than you do from the factory. I think the only difference between the kits is the amount of blending solution that comes with each one.

Will have to see some "after" pics

m4a1mustang · 08-10-2009, 09:45 PM

Well I ordered touch-up paint so we'll see how it goes. I am probably going to have to get some grittier polish as well to try and get it as close to stock-looking as possible.

kdo2milger · 08-10-2009, 10:00 PM

let us know how it goes Steve...you know the deal pics

m4a1mustang · 08-10-2009, 10:03 PM

Will do. I'm just going to have to take my time and layer it up and polish it smooth.

m4a1mustang · 08-26-2009, 10:01 PM

Touch-up paint is in. I may give it a go this weekend. Need to stock up on some rubbing compound.

MrBMW · 08-27-2009, 01:12 AM

Damn that is a nasty little chip there m4a'. I hope the Touch-up paint works well for you mate. Definitely keep us posted on the end result mate, could come in handy for some of us.

Thank Goodness that it wasn't worse like a rock thru the windshield and touch-up will hide most of it.

HATED1 · 08-04-2010, 07:01 PM

im in the same position as you, in it to see the results! post what and how you did it too! thanks!

m4a1mustang · 08-04-2010, 07:08 PM

I'll try to get a pic or two tomorrow. This was months ago and I only put two coats on, but it looks way better than it did... LOL.

Man, that's nothing. I had one literally the size of a quarter on my old '07 G35 and it took a panel repaint to make right. Have fun touching yours up!
