Application ease?

Thanks guys, now tell me if the process lived up to the advertisement? Did it smooth out without a bump or was there some or no evidence of the repair work? Sounds like the chem. softens the paint so you can rub it down level then when dry polish with a little hand glaze. Any tips or tribulations in your experience?

Do a little at a time, if it is a rock chip and no metal showing build the paint up by filling the chip with paint using a toothpick, use a couple coats of clear (let dry) and wet sand with fine sandpaper (I think I used 2000 grit) and polish will help it blend.

Up close you will always be able to tell, but I would say 3 feet away it is hard to tell.
