Bought this stuff on a lark to fix some chips after seeing the ad in Autoweek. Supposed to be here next week, but wanted to know if anyone here had used it.

Yes, I watched the youtube vids of it but they're not the best quality.

I've used it on an F430 and a Highlander. Both worked well. The F430 turned out very well ( he chipped his gas cap door) and the Highlander turned out ok.

Better than the paint pens imo.

I have used it.

The key is using multiple applications over the course of time. Layering makes it look very good. The paint is usually spot on, but if you have a chip/ding, you will need to apply multiple layers/solution

I tried it and it didn't work (victory red color for chevy). The paint would just rub off when I went to buff it out/remove excess.

Sounds like you didn't clear over it?

Langka worked well for me because I did layer the paint and it excels at removing the raised "blob."

I'd rather have a Porsche. All the press I read on Ferraris makes it seem like they're run by a bunch of jerks.

seems to be key - i put one layer on two small chips and the paint is a perfect match, but as he said it doesn't fill up the chip unless you put multiple layers.


also noticed a few small chips the previous owner tried to fill in and did a shit job of

Well, I ordered some Langka and an OEM touch-up pen the other day for the Z06; we'll compare results when I'm done.
