Just used a dr colorchip kit to fill a pea sized chip on my door. This door was recently re-painted so the chip is down to the original paint. But I am having a hard time with filling the chip. I did email dr colorchip about my issue and got a phone call and email from them with several...

I just had my left rear quarter panel and bumper repaired and painted three days ago. Anyone know how long I should wait to apply sealant and wax to that area? No clear coat.

Already have 3 coats of carnuba wax applied in a month. I'm trying to see if I can get a good gloss buffing with the existing coats. I have a GG6" and will use MF bonnets to buff. Good or bad idea?

I purchased the updated GG DA last month. It's great and has lot's of power. I sent an email question to GG about pad size and it was recco'd to use only 6" pads, anything smaller and you run the risk of the backplate hitting the paint.
