Don't want to start a holy war...but

I've been using the Zaino system for years and frankly its scary how well it works. It's light years ahead of anything else I've used and I've tried a bunch. I have not tried Klasse products.

I guarantee you will not regret it!

My hood has road rash so I was thinking of trying Dr. Chip to repair them. Should I do this first or doesn't it really matter. Based on time I would just as soon wax now and then in the fall treat all the paint chips.

But maybe it makes sense to paint the chips now and then put all the sealants / wax on top. Any thoughts?

Also, is there really a difference in polishers? Makita/Milwaukee/PC? I could see for the pro - but for a couple of times over the summer? Even with three cars that is just 6x a year or so.

Wash with Dawn, claybar the car, and then fill in the paint chips, and then wax it.

Dr. Chip does look good from three or four feet away, but it's not like a respray from what I have read online. Some guys swear by it but others say it ain't that great.

I agree with the "good from three feet" comment. The problem with this application is that it does not fill the chip "craters", but colors them instead.

I would attack the chips before spending time on polishing and waxing. Even if you fill the chips the traditional way, you can polish them out later with the orbital.

I've personally had better luck with dabbing paint in the chip, let dry and lightly wet sand with 2500 grit...polish with the orbital and they disappear.
