Dr Color Chip vs BMW touch up stick

Jerry09 · 03-08-2025, 11:29 PM

Hi, my mom 2022 X5 with TANZANITE BLUE II METALLIC, car have some deeper scratches that polish won't help much, does anyone try Dr Color chip with BMW metallic print? try to fill those area and wipe with their solution?
How is the result? Not really into Bmw touch up stick since I need to sand the paint after to receive best result.

although I have no personal experience with it, everything I have seen or watched, if the scratches are deep, it truly requires sanding and polishing to get the scratches to blend.

I've use a different product - Langka - a liquid to remove the excess touch up after drying the recommended time. For scratches I think it is difficult to not remove the touch up paint entirely. Chips are much easier, due to the greater depth and more defined edges. Maybe Dr Colorchip is different?
