BSM touch up paint

rbol13 · 06-05-2018, 11:16 AM

Hi all,

Did a search an Dr color chip seems to be highly praised for touch ups except for AW, I haven't seen any feed back for BSM.

Is this the way to go or should I get the BMW OEM touch up kit?

Thanks as always!

For small marks I use BSM touch up.

The bmw one is crap get dr color chip. Metallics are hard to get perfect but Dr CC is the best option.

I have dr color for bsm. Its good. It takes a few apps to really fill in the marks. I highly recommend doing it in the shade or in the early morning so its cooler out. You'll get better results

Why do you say that? I have the OEM one and it works fine. Takes one time to fill in.

Dr color chip is much easier to use and get a great result takes no skill.

BMW touch up paint is crap. Use BSM. I've had good luck too with Dr. ColorChip. Expensive though.
