The stuff work pretty good! It takes some time to get the hang of it as I rubbed too hard on my first attempts and took out the paint in the chip. Definitely an improvement over the usual touch-up, but still not perfect. I would recommend a different touch up paint than Acura's though. It's too thin to do a good cover up without many multiple coats, at least with WDP. Has anybody found a good match in a different brand?

I am going to purchase mine soon because they won't be back for another couple of days.
Their website was pretty informative. Looks good to me so post results and pics of the product (Langka).

I have a Monterey Blue and used the Acura touchup paint and Lanka. I had quite a few stone chips on my hood and was quite impressed with how well it worked. I can't find where the chips were. The secret to making it work is to use the touchup paint and wait 24 hours to appy the Lanka. I want to use it again, but I am going to wait until spring when it is warmer to do it.

The shit is pretty strong... I had put on touchup paint and it looked like crap. So I ordered Langka. A week and a half later I used Langka and it took off all the touchup paint... the chip I was trying to repair was more like a tiny crinkle and so cannot really be fixed. The touchup paint looked like shit so I'm glad I had Langka to take it off. Lets hope I never get to try it on a ding.

yeah, I just got home to try it out on the accord, and ...whoops, most of the touch up paint came off. I definitely used too much pressure. Time to touch up again. The parts that did not come off look great though!

This stuff sounds like what I saw the paint guy use at the Acura dealer's parking lot. It's called acetone. It will take off the touchup but not hurt the factory paint because of the clearcoat. Does anyone who used it think it's just overpriced acetone?

nope. Its a mild mild abrasive probably mixed with a mild solvent so it actually needs a bit of rubbing. the reason it seems to work is they supply this plastic card that you use to back up the soft cloth and when you rub, the surface youa re rubbing stays flat, thus not affecting the inside of the scratch or chip as much as around it. Thats why the blob goes away. gotta start gently though, you;d rather do it a few times than have to retouchup like me.
