Langka for fixing paint scratches
I got a few scratches on my red OBS (actually my 3 year old son put them there, by driving a toy Civic over the fenders and doors )
Not necessarilly an expensive repainting needed, 'cause I tried out this Langka product http://www.langka.com/ The idea is to fill the scratch or chip with touch-up paint, wait a day or two, then apply Langka to the resulting blob using a flat credit card sized applicator. Only hitch, it was difficult to get the paint to stay in the shallow scratches - this blob remover solvent would just strip the touch-up paint right out of the scratch, no matter how gently I worked it.
I ended up letting the paint dry for two weeks before rubbing the Lanka on. Worked like a charm. Now off to the body shop for $25 worth of polishing.
