Langka Chip Repair!

[kingman]

Hi

l finally made up my mind and l'm going to order this product and give it a go. l looked at other products, but this seems to be to my liking.

Ok, Detailing Dude, l need some help.

l'm going to order the 4oz size, brush, and what should l use to take the wax off? l don't think l will need the primer because there isn't any rust, and l already have a primer from my Volvo kit which l didn't open yet.

Can you think of anything else?

Thanks Again.

Looks like you have the whole shooting match. If your vette has a clear coat you'll need to get some of that as well.

Yes I can: Patience. It is not included in any of the bottles. If you have a bit of metallic paint you'll need to apply it in very thin coats and wait between applications.

Hey let us know how well it works for you.As far as the primer goes,you dont use it to get rid of rust but to prevent rust.You probably only need the primer if you have bare metal showing and even then you could probably do with out it.
Detailingdude,isnt this basically the same as filling the nick/scratch and then sanding it with 1500 and buffing it?

I kinda thought the same thing at first. However, with this you're saving your paint on one HUGE way. Say you do your chips 2 times a year for 5 years..... you could hit a point of paint failure in several locations. With Langka 99% of the sanding is eliminated thus saving your paint in the long run.

I don't link purchasing products that are 'fluff' or extraneous, but I really do feel like Langka should be a part of everybody's arsenal.
