Jeff...try the Langka.com web site for their detailed info, but essentially this product deals with the fact that it dissolves/softens the touchup paint, while it has no effect on the surrounding clear coat, allowing you to flatten it down to match the surrounding surface, something you cannot do with just the paint. It's all chemistry to me, but the web site will load your skull with otherwise useless info on the topic.

So, if you went about applying the touch-up paint thusly (per the Langka web site)...

"Use a toothpick, matchstick or brush to apply manufacturer's touch-up paint. Allow it to dry to the touch — typically 45-90 minutes. This will leave the typical "blob" of touch-up paint visible on the surface. Apply 2nd or 3rd coat if necessary."

Applying either the Mother's or Langka product does this...

"Wrap a smooth, clean, tightly woven cotton cloth around the enclosed "buffing card". SHAKE WELL and apply the product generously to the flat surface. Rub it over the "blob" for 15-30 seconds allowing it to quickly penetrate and begin smoothing the "blob" of excess paint. Once the touch-up paint blob begins to wear off, begin rubbing lighter until the excess paint is gone and paint is left inside the chip/scratch. Lightly hand-buff to remove any excess product with a clean cloth. Apply clear coat if necessary with fine tip brush."

'tis truly a miracle...wish I had it years ago...
