Correcting a paint chip on the BMW i8 with Dr. Colorchip

When I first assessed the paint chip on the hood of my BMW i8, I realized that it also resulted in marring of the existing paint. So, I did some paint correction, prepped the surface for touch up, and applied the paint. I decided to purchase Dr. Colorchip touch up paint for all my cars about 6 months ago. I've used it on all my cars and have been happy with the results. So, I decided to create this video to show you how well it works. I'm using the squeegee method, where I pour touch up paint on the surface of the car, squeegee the paint into the chip, and then buff the paint residue off using the Dr. Colorchip SealAct.
