Has anyone used this stuff?

Its called Langka Saw an add in R n T mag. They have a website http://www.langka.com It shows a really fuzzy vid clip that I cant see the scratch well in.

I have discovered a couple of rock chips on the front underspoiler and I have the touchup paint, but no guts to use it. This stuff sounds like it might work, but I want to know for sure before using on my child.

I used it and it isn't as good as advertised. I had to try a couple of times before I quit. If you put too little on and don't rub it enough the paint leaves a bump. If you put too much on, rub too hard or don't wait long enough, it takes the paint out of the chip.

I finally got it smooth but I have a silver and there is still a shadow.

Thats about what I thought would be the case. If it was that great they would have it everywhere. Oh well, I guess its off to the body shop if I want this aggravating tiny litle piece of s#$t chip gotten out then.

Same here....Didn't work as well they showed in their video. I tried it on several chips and it just kept removing the paint from the craters of the chips. I believe it doesn't work very well on our cars because of the clearcoat finish. If it was a basic paint finish, it would probably do a better job. IMO, this product is a waste of money.

I think you have to be careful whatever you used. I used touchup paint on my old bumper. Didn't like the outcome.
