Dr. ColorChip blending solution

[98LowRanger]

Just was wondering if anyone used Dr. ColorChip blending solution that removes excess paint, but leaves it in the lower spots (chips) with non-Dr. ColorChip paint. Reason I ask is because I have a spot on a customer's car with many very small chips. The Dr. ColorChip method would work perfectly only I am smearing Duplicolor paint over the spot and using the Dr. ColorChip blending solution to hopefully remove the excess paint around the tiny chips. Anyone try this? I would assume all the blending solution is mainly a paint thinner. I have no time to order the Dr. ColorChip paint which is why I am considering this.

I've done it with lacquer clearcoat from Wurth before, but never duplicolor.

You'll want to add some mineral spirits to it. It will help remove the paint faster. This info came from Dr. Colorchip to remove their product more effectively.

Hmmmm....did you have good results with the blending solution removing the excess clear?

Hmm, what about pure Naptha?

Anyone else try the blending solution on touch up paint besides Dr. ColorChips?

in the video with Mike Phillips, the dude from Dr. Colorchip specifically says SealAct won't work with other touch up paints.

but then there is someone on this forum that used it on some old non-Dr. Colorchip touch up repairs and said it leveled them to a degree.

So here is the question then. What can I use as a leveling liquid for standard touch-up paint on my Ford Fusion, for example?

Dr. C-Chip Sealact Solution works extremely slow and not very effective if at all on leveling factory type or Duplicolor type Touch Up Paints. I have tried it on a custom Cal Vue Mirror on my Tahoe that was touched up years prior with Duplicolor Paint, and while it did somewhat work, I sure used a lot of elbow grease, and a lot of Sealact product.

But what might work better, is a 1-2 punch combination of Langka, and then Sealact after.

Langka Blob Remover is designed to work with Factory Touch Up type Paints.

I myself tried Langka many years ago, and to me, it was a very "touchy" product with rarely achieving desired results. As 1 or 2 swipes too many with the product would then remove too much, or all of the touch up paint from the repair area.

But still, it might be a worthy product to have on hand to try to use it as I mention above, or to remove previous poor attempts that you, or someone else has done with touch up repair.

To the OP, I would highly consider using the Dr. Colorchip system as an offering. Contact them about the partner program for detailers. It's what I use on all customers vehicles. I just took care of some rear bumper rash on a vehic today using the squeegee method. Came out great...
The shipping is pretty quick, however, I just did a 2012 Mustang and the customer asked the day before if the could get the rock chip repair. He paid the over-night shipping.
