| Buying from the dealer takes alot of the uncertainty about the correct color, but as long as the color code matches it really doesn't matter where you buy it. In addition to using the color match paint, I've used LANGKA Paint Chip and Scrath Repair. Checkout the website at www.langka.com.

| I 2nd the Langka experience. 100% satisfied and much easier than I expected. Fixed some paint chips and waxed the hood of the wife's 545i. Used the BMW Factory Touch Up paint with the Langka product and you can't even tell. What better way to pass a rainy weekend away? If anyone wants detailed instructions or any hints on using the Langka, please PM me. Great Stuff. Regards, Mike. P.S. I use the Griots Garage Stuff, religously and it works great. I rec'd the random orbital buffer from Christmas and would not ever go back to hand applying wax. No, I don't work for Griots or Langka.
