I bought a Formula Red for my car but never had a chance to put the touch up paint on. Now I sold my AP1 and got my Apex Blue Pearl.

I won't be needing it. Its brand new, UPS box never open. Im willing to sell it for $30 plus shipping. Its from Dr.ColorChip Corp.

PM me, if you are interested.
Thanks.

P.S.
I do believe this is the best for whats out there now. I done some research before I purchase this product.

^^^ yes you are right the Dr.Color Chip no one can beat on the market right now. I live in Houston and the traffic here is ridiculous. I had a ton of chips, nicks and little cracks and let me tell you that this product is amazing. I mean I have literraly tried almost everything out there. Went to the dealer got me a little bottle with a paint brush looking tool to use. No the best solution but it can work just be careful and shake the bottle well because the paint will get thick and stringy. I even bought an aerosol can of GPW and tried that. Practically ruined my whole bumper. Colors didn't even match.
Then I bought the dr color chip and damn it worked miracles. I will never purchase anything else but this product. You literally do exactly how it shoes you on the step by step video from their site. But remember to space out your coats. That guy was rushing for the video making purpose. So buy with confidence.

The color matching is good, but there is still a indent where the original chip was. I'm going to let this dry overnight and repeat tomorrow to see how well it continues to fill in the chip.

It's not as quick as they make it out to be, but it does seem to work.

How did this turn out? I have a spa yellow pearl and am looking to get the kit if it is worth it

This thread is 4 years old... so you may not get a response.

I definitely recommend the product though - for the price it can't be beat once you get the hang of it. The color matching is really good in my opinion and can provide decent fill for a larger cup with several applications.

I knew it would be a shot in the dark. Thank you for your response! I think I will get some and make a thread I just hope is works with the pearl coat because all the ones i see here are the standard coat.
