Default Langka!!

I just tried using the Langka http://www.langka.com/ scratch-chip remover today! I tried taking before and after photos...but they just didn't turn out at all....its one of those things you have to see in person.

WOW....what a difference....the touch up paint blob is gone! It takes some time to get it just the way you want & you have to put a pretty thick layer of paint down to "level" it off with the rest of the paint, but when done right it works great! Far cheaper than a body shop or wet sanding! The only bummer is on small rock chips the paint just doesn't grab enough and the whole touch up is pulled out :>(

Of course it works best on non clear coat cars....but it does work really well for only about $50!

Where do you think I got the idea?!?!?! :>)

Still the stuff straight works.....after looking very closely at some high chip areas on my car (think mirrors) I found a couple other spots that were repaired using a langka process....very good repairs....one of those you have to look closely then keep changing the angle you look at it to see it repairs! Its not perfect....but damm close!

It might not work as well on a clear coated car.....guards red is a base color only paint?
