Показать описание
Dan McCool and Mike Phillips show you step by step how to use the Dr. Color Chip Repair System to quickly do rock chip repair work to any car.

Step 1
Inspect the car for rock chips by walking around the car and looking for areas of missing paint in all the normal areas like the front bumper, the front of the hood, door edges, the edges of the trunk lid, edges of a hatchback door or around the gas tank filler lid.

Step 2
Wipe the areas with rock chips clean using a waterless wash. This will help you to identify actual rock chips and dirt specs or bug splatter.

Step 3
Pick and match the best color of Dr. ColorChip touch-up paint to match the paint on the car to be repaired.

Step 4
Use the correct technique to apply the touch up paint.

The dab and smear Technique
Dab a tiny amount of paint in front of a rock chip to be repaired. Then using your thumb or finger smear the paint into the rock chip.

The squirt and squeegee technique
For this technique you use paint that's in the squirt bottle. Squirt a little paint in front of the rock chip and then use the squeegee blade to spread the touch-up paint into the chipped area.

You can also apply a drop or two of paint onto the squeegee and then use the squeegee to spread the paint into the chipped area.

Step 5
Shake the Sealact Blending Solution well so that it's fully mixed. Then apply a liberal amount to the lint free wiping cloth with a flat surface. Gently rub the wiping cloth over the touch-up paint to remove any excess off the factory paint and level the touch-up paint.

White is a very forgiving color, please do a demo on black with good lighting.

I was an early adopter of this product on my Mica black metallic Mazdaspeed 3. This product works, when finished, you basically had to know where the chip was before and look at it real close in the right light to see where the chip was. The repair seemed tougher than the original paint and I never had a chip appear again in the same spot. I now purchase a kit for every car I own.

this stuff really works. As stated above, it doesn't fill the chip- ie: it would be flush with your exiting paint. However, for those annoying and inevitable stone chips that occur, this stuff is incredible-- AND DURABLE! I first started using this product 3 years ago. Not only have I never needed to refill a previous treated chip, none of the chips I've treated have ever rusted (I live in western, NY, where we have harsh winters and use road salt), one kit has been more than enough sealant and paint for 3 years worth of chips, and the pain still works beautifully! This is one of the few products that does what it claims! ohhh and the color match is perfect!

I have used this product on a black 2006 Highlander to fill in road rash as well as deeper chips, and it has worked very well. Usually use it in the spring after a touch winter and in the fall. Bought the car with many chips so had lots of practice to perfect the process. Always got comments about how good my car looked for its age.

This is one of the best instructional videos I have ever watched. Definitely sold on this and the amount of positive comments in chat.

Used this on my dark blue Infiniti. Had scratches and paint chips on the sides and rear and with a couple coats of this, you can barely see them! Truly a great product, the color match was perfect. Thank you DR Color Chip

Just tried it for the first time - I like it. There's a knack to removing just the right amount of paint - obviously if you rub for long enough, it ALL comes off. I don't mind the fact that I sometimes don't get it right the first go. Yes I can still see the chips, but there has been a worthwhile improvement.

I am so glad I trusted what I saw on your YouTube channel and decided to order my kit to repair the chips on my Cirrus White 2017 Mercedes-Benz CLA250. I noticed a lot of small chips (around 40 on the front bumper AFTER I bought the car and was a bit nervous that I'd have to get it repainted. I saw a YouTube video highly recommending your product and when I applied it to my car, I was nervous until I saw the results! WOW! Standing less than a foot away, I cannot tell that their were chips. Even up close I have a very difficult time identifying where the chips were. I have to touch the surface to truly know. I am so pleased with the results!!!

Just used this kit now, the Squeegee blade Kit, squeegee is useless it will take the paint right off, i tried 5 different times, impossible to get good results. So then tried using my thumb, this had better results, but not sure if the paint was mixed too thin, but it did not do a good job of "sitting" in the small and medium chips.

The best results i had was with these tiny little brushes you get with a super small "fuzzy" Q-Tip. These worked best because you could dab paint next to chip and "roll" the brush over chip.

Then let it dry.. 4mins 26c outside. EVERY TIME the chip was still visible.

The colour, for my horrible to find paint for the new Mazda CX5 "Soul Crystal Red" (that will be a extra 1, 000 Euros also please, says Mr Mazda sales man) the Dr Chip color in pot and on brush looked to match really well, but again, once on and once removed the over paint, the chip was not smooth. Even in this video when it zooms in, you can still, pretty clearly see chips underneath.

Summary: IT works well to cover the base layer after you get a chip, you will have a extra layer of protection that should be good enough against rust. The formula that wipes of access is great, you only get/end up with paint in the chip.

Overall 6/10 Not bad, but not very good either. BUT Better than nothing (which what Mazda offered me, "uses 3 layers of paint process, blah blah blah, get used to the chips buddy, its how all the paint is made on new cars now) thats what they told me!

Color chip is what it does “color your chip in” if your have a deeper chip it will not fill in, it does a good job for very small chips. I applied it 6 times using this method it colored it in that’s it. It cleans up real good outside the chip area, I will continue to apply it. So, in the end it will “color your chip in “ . I will post again on my progress.

I used this stuff on my car i was a little worried about how it would turn out, but i tryed it and came out great !

I believe I followed these tips and even after multiple drops and wipes, I was not happy with there was still a crater. We are talking about a average scratch - not too deep.

Also there was a lot of extra paint around the chip and it was really hard to use the Sealact to remove. I may go back to the old method of filing the chip and sanding it flat.

I used it on my Forester and a body guy who had been doing repairs for 40 years took a look at it and said I did a perfect job. I didn't tell him which product I used, just that I had filled some chips.

Mine is in the mail for my Mustang GT lazer red. Bought it with many rock chips, as a daily it is not worth respraying. Can’t wait to see how well it works.

I just found out about this AMAZING PRODUCT on another video by Canadian Rider and gotta say it's mind blowing how easy and how much coverage it gives I'll be calling your office in a short time to ensure I get the correct kit for my truck. Keep up the great work 👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great product- just use common sense and watch the video! On big chips, apply one coat with sealant and let it set up overnight (24 hours). Apply again. I apply to plastic bumper too- works fantastic. Color matched my 1995 Sport V6 Camry perfectly! Dr. Reimers

These guys are kidding you. This is the old "Duco" lacquer we sprayed on cars in the 1960s. The Sealact is just Duco thinners with something white added to it to make it look wonderfully mysterious. Duco thinners will not affect the water paint on new cars or acrylic. The products they sale don't tell you openly what it is. Unfortunately, motor vehicle paint stores no longer carry this paint. So Dr. ColorChip has you by the balls.
