Dr Colorchip and RRM

I didn't see RRM on the Dr Colorchip website.
I sent an inquiry about possible matches, but it'll likely be tomorrow or the next day before I get a reply, so I thought I would ask here as well.

Does anyone know if Dr Colorchip has a match for RRM?

Cheers!

Since its a new color might take them some time. I have used the kit for IOM and worked great just to fill in a couple of small spots.

Does this stuff actually work or what? I have a few very light chips in the Gill area.

Yes it does, I have used it with great results.

The keys when using it are to completely clean the chip, use a laminated card (instead of your finger) to spread it across the chip, and to use very light to no pressure when using the Seal Act to remove excess. It works best on darker colors.

Before you get the Dr Colorchip, I would suggest getting splash/rock guards for the front tires so you won't get new chips.

They look like this.

Thanks for the info man. I have CRT, so that's a darker color, so I should be all right.
I already have front splash guards. The few chips I have on the gills are light thank God and from before I got my slash guards.

Stuff just makes me nervous, as far as matching and rubbing that remover on my clear coat.

The match on my Victory Red was perfect, don't think "rub" when using SealAct remover, think "I'm petting the head of a baby bird".

The remover won't harm your clear coat, but dirt/grit around the chip area could if rubbed into the clear.

So in other words make sure the area is prepped and cleaned good before doing the repair right?
