Last weekend, my husband went out of town for a conference in Denver. Before he left, he told me that my girlfriends and I could use his Lexus for our Saturday night “girl’s night out”. I was excited. I looked forward to a great night with my girlfriends along with the opportunity to show off in his pretty car. Orange County Paint Touch Up

However, on the Sunday morning following “girl’s night out” I woke with an enormous headache. I knew Lacy had driven us all home safely – she was the Friday night designated driver. However, I did remember taking a funny route home and feeling as though we were lost.

I got dressed, and was ready to go to the gym. I walked out our front door, ready to go, when I freaked. The Lexus tail was missing several pea-sized paint chips. That car is my husband’s baby and he takes care of it meticulously; I knew that as a result of our Saturday night adventure I would never be able to borrow the car again.

I rushed inside, tore open the phonebook, and looked for automotive paint repair shops in Orange County. As I read through the list of names, I realized something. I slammed the phone book shut, and turned on the computer.

You see, I remembered that my friend Christine had a similar experience several years ago, when she completely ruined the paint job on her convertible. Several days after her convertible incident, she phoned me and, in a rush, excitedly told me about a product she had found on a website online. The auto paint repair kit had fixed her convertible’s road rash, and she was thrilled. Christine had been quoted car paint repair prices that ranged from several hundred dollars up to nearly 2 grand; she knew she had saved herself a pretty penny.

I decided to take her advice. I had put the website http://www.carpaintchiprepair.com/competitors.html in my favorites. I’m not sure why I had saved it, but am I happy I did!

The website described the Dr ColorChip Paint Chip Repair system, a recommended product by the Wall Street Journal. After carefully considering my other options ( I didn’t have any), I purchased the individual kit.

When my husband came home, he had no clue anything was wrong – I even used the Lexus to pick him up from the airport! I gave him the chance to unpack and get settled in before I told him what had happened to the Lexus. He ran outside, took a look at the Lexus tail, and then gave me a huge hug. Automotive Paint Repair
