SAFC99 Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 Here is pics of bonnet with chips filled with the touch up IMG]http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk180/safc99/CIMG0110-1.jpg[/img] And after job was done, there is still the odd chip visable but another go when my back and arm recover should sort it out.

Let us know what they look like from different angles. The main gripe I had with the attempt I made with a touchup pen and Langka was that from one angle it was spot on but from others it was miles darker. I hear that this is an inherant problem of metalics, esp silver, but this kit is meant to be specially formulated to avoid this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Looks like this kit gives good results, but it's a pity to have to order it from the States. Can you get it over here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toon Chris Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 +1 My front end is very freckled, anything decent is worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAFC99 Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 It tool me 4 hours to do the bonnet, and still nees another go, havent started the bumper yet, i think i would have been better off putting a weekend of overtime in at work and pay some one to do it with the money, it really is hard work and takes 2 applications! My arms and back is killing today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
