X1E Frozen Portimao Blue Touch Up Paint Kit for BMW Scratch and Chip Repair - 2.53 Fl Oz (75ml)

Rock chips are totally invisible unless you get really close and know where to look.

Modern paint is thin and you have ot be prepared for rock chips, this works well to minimize chips and scratches.

I tried to do the official thing like in the video. You can erase what you've done easily so I tried at least 5 times. I just couldn't get it to do what the guy does in the video. In the end, I just put the touch up paint on, which is an exact match. It looks better than it did especially from a normal distance. You could not have your car for a couple weeks and spend thousands at a body shop or slap this on for a few bucks. Maybe you can do it like the guy in the video and it will look like new. If not, at least the paint is a perfect match to touch up.

Firstly, I haven't found a touch up paint that doesn't dry lumpy, none that I've ever had to try dry smooth.After a valet managed to rub the corner of the bumper on a 1 week old 3 series white BMW leaving a nice black gash and scratches, I thought I would try this kit, because of the "blending" option. The description and instructions make it sound easy, but, as with many of the other reviews, the "blending" just removes almost all of the touch up paint. I tried several times, different techniques, less blending solution, different edges of the foam insert, it didn't matter, out the paint came from the scratches. The worst damage, a 2 inch by 1/2 inch gash on the corner edge became a bit of a nightmare as a result. Touch up paint never dries smooth, the edges are always either above the existing paint or below, I thought this blending option would make that look a bit better, but its a waste of time and effort, the thinners that is the "blending agent" just removes too much paint. Ended up with an OK look as long as there's no light shining on the paint damaged area, and you don't look too hard or too long. Also re-touched a couple of spots/scratches on the hood that the previous owner had tried to touch up. Color match was acceptable, naked eye is not a match, but after wax and stepping back a bit further it worked to cover the damage. Other products without the "blending" option probably work just as well. Without the paint shop sanding and polishing, these touch up products are really only good for small stone chips.

perfect match for my 2024 bmw x3. Will be buying another one

I dont usually write reviews unless rhe product is really good and worth recommending to others. Color match is perfection, this works extremely well, it completely fixed the scratches, can't even tell it was there.

Do not buy this product. It essentially ruined the paint on my 2023 Isle of Man Green M3. 100% color match is a huge overstatement in this case. I’d ask for my money back but I’ve probably just devalued my car way more using this than if I had just left the paint chips from rocks as they were.

I've tried a few other products in the past such as the touch up pens and they've never really worked all that great. This product worked exactly as advertised. You literally can not see the scratch anymore. I don't think this would work for a deep gouge but for door scraps, etc this is ideal.
