I need to fill some chips on the front hood and came across a product called LANGKA on BMWtips.com. The product is suposed to smooth out paint blobs left from tuch up paint. Has anyone used this product, if so is it worth the $29.00? http://www.langka.comused:
Another option is buying the OEM touch up paint and carefully applying it with a tooth pic. It helps if the tooth pic is just barely wet with paint. Using a magifying glass really makes it easy too.
Repeat the tooth pic procedure with the clear coat.
No blobs!
I almost never use the cap brush that comes with the paint.

I found the toothpick trick to work nicely. Instead of using the brush get a ball of paint on the end of a tooth pick and let it touch the chip and fill, less ikky mess...but this stuff looks interesting
