So I just got some yesterday....and am a bit confused.
There are two bottles...one with siver paint...and one with what looks to be clear coat. The problem is that the box and all is in German..and their are no instructions in english on applying the paint.
Has anyone here used this touch up paint on their cars? Any certain process to follow?
TIA

Use a toothpick to apply a small drop into the chip and then let it dry completely. Repeat until chip is almost filled level to the surrounding surface, then repeat the process with the clearcoat until paint is even with the surrounding surface. Resist the urge to put too much paint on at once and let each drop dry completely. The less you rush the better your results will be.
Although someone did post another promising-sounding process a couple days ago on this forum. Basically, he put a big drop in the chip that bubbled higher than the surrounding surface and then used Imperial Hand Glaze to slowly reduce the bubble of paint until it was even with the surface. You'll have to track down his post to get the specifics of his technique. Sorry, but I don't remember who posted it.
