Does anyone have any experience of the above Product(s), or if not specifically Blue, then any other colour? I would be interested in hearing opinions of this product, and whether it's any good or not before I part with my hard-earned.

If it's down to the white primer you'll need to get a touch up from LR. Coloured polish wont do it IMHO |

Never had any problems with other Turtle Wax products. Only tried the Color black and it was good. Now I use their Rapid Drying Shampoo, also very good. It was on offer in Halfords for 」1 a bottle! |

It's all about proof with anyone these days Nick. I don't like to cave in without a fight, but I know I'm on a hiding to nothing even trying with Stratford D.C.
I have to say, I last used one on my green Omega MV6 about 11 years ago (Colormagic I think), and thought it was pretty poor then. Was hoping the technology might have moved on a bit by now, hence the question. I have a touch-up in the glovebox, but I know that it will look crap if I try to use it, owing to the high light refraction through the clear coat. Was going to try and mask/fill it and then seal it if at all possible, hence the OP.

I have seen the blue stuff used, complete rubbish, washes off leaving a blue scum behind.

From experience Baltic Blus is almost impossible to hide scratches on. I've tried Turtle, so called magic scratch sticks and various other products. Even LR paint sticks can come out as a different colour. Best result I had was from a traditional paint shop who did a three inch scratch on front bumper for about 」130 and you couldn't tell it had been done afterwards. |

Chipsaway is the way to go by the sounds of it.... Used them before to do the front back and 2 doors on my jeep before it went,,, did the complete back bumper and front bumper and lower half 2 doors for 」220 spent all day on it and came out flawless

I had a lot of road rash/stone chips and a few scratches on my last car. Used a paint kit from chipex, with matched paint and came with blending solution which allows you to remove excess paint. Kit came with paint, bending solution,polish and a collection of cloths, brushes and gloves so no need to buy anything else.
