Painting Process
Prep: Clean and dry surface to be painted
 Step 1: Put the glove (provided in the kit) on the hand that will be applying paint. Shake paint bottle until steel balls flow freely. Apply a minimal amount of paint to chips. Immediately 'zip' over the paint with your finger to smear it and smooth out the surface. You could call this the 'dab and smear' method. This helps the paint uniformly fill the chips and expedites drying time, which should be less than a minute to the touch. Photos below illustrate how the paint should appear after application. You may want to do small sections until you get a feel for the removal process.

 Step 2: Paint should feel dry or tacky to the touch after a minute or two. If it's wet after two minutes, you've used too much. Smear the paint more with your finger to spread out evenly. It should dry very quickly.
Working in small quadrants, apply a liberal amount of Prefast blending solution to folded T-shirt rag or other smooth cloth. With light to medium pressure, rub over the painted area, letting the chemical do the work. Do not scrub. The excess paint will begin blending away from the 'overpainted' areas after a few passes with the towel. Keep the towel moist, re-applying Prefast as needed. Immediately buff the Prefast residue to a shine using the enclosed microfiber towel. Repeat this process until all excess paint is gone. The paint should remain in the chips.

You may want to repeat this process for deeper chips, painting, then removing the excess until the fill level is satisfactory.
