Do you use Dr. Colorchip with an orbital? What's your technique?

You'll need the orbital to deswirl, then follow with the Dr. Color Chip and lock it all in with the Opti Coat 2.0 ($80 on autogeek.net)
The Opti-coat is a basically a wipe on permanent clear coat so you want the surface free of any swirls before you fill in the chips.


This guy has the paint technique down, I think it's all he does. Dr. Color Chip has literally every color possible.
