    Fix chip or repaint

    Is it better to fix the chip in the paint and keep the original paint on the panel or repaint the area? Cost is not a factor. I guess I am asking if original paint is better than a repaint? TIA

    Instructional Video for using a PC

    Does anybody know of a good instructional video or DVD on how to use a PC. I think Megs has one on buffing paint but I think that is more for a rotary buffer. I have some friends that I would like to give this to and I would like to have it as well since I am new to the PC. TIA

    Safe to clay a clear bra?

    I washed my car today and noticed some black specks on the front end of the car. When I run my hand over the area it feels a little ruff. If this was any other area of my car I would just clay it and it would be smooth as glass. I don't know if I should clay the clear bra. When it was put on I...
