    I always wondered myself. But the fact you can't correct a scratch at home is ridiculous. And the BMW paint tech's evasiveness about repairing chips makes me believe that a Dr. Colorchip fix is out of the question, if you expect it look good. Then the the knock down sheet was crazy. All painter's should do a knockdown sheet before painting anything, new or respray. But when they showed the major differences in slight adjustments with hardeners, that means a repair is probably going to look like a repair and wont match the original paint.

    So I guess if you see someone with a clean frozen paintjob, just assume they're ballers and have the car resprayed every year.

    That's what would scare me. That's a LOT of talk about a LOT of things just to say how to repair a scratch, without a LOT of detail.

    I've decided to keep the same color. Only because right now I don't believe I can manage to keep the car in good condition especially since I dont have a garage to protect it. But glad to see so many people enjoy the color. :D maybe I'll consider that on the miata I'll be getting soon
