No, no photo doctoring. Not the best camera (iPad), but the "before" with all the white specs (chips), and the after shots all same ipad cam and all pics taken in about a 15~20 minute time-span.

Go for it; it struck me as a little spendy, but with what i was able to do first time out in 20 minutes (and half of that gettin' organized and takin' the pics), no buyer's remorse here.

I can't stress enough - ya gotta have a plan. Define the section you are going to do, take that section to completion, then define and do the next section. I missed chips, tried to move faster because the little dabber was drying, etc. not necessary and trying to speed up my process just made it so I gotta go back over a couple parts.

They tell you NOT to blob the paint into the chip, and it sure doesn't feel natural to put a dab next to the chip and smear it across, so ya gotta get yourself used to that idea going in. Also they give you a glove to wear to smear with, and that too is a little weird. Next time I plan to use bare finger; I've read other reviews where folks liked the control and feel better than using the nitrile glove they give in the kit. Plus the paint dries so quickly that you can't use just one gloved finger unless you are really fast (and ya won't be first time out) because the paint on that finger of the glove tacks up real fast.
