I ordered the Dr Color kit with squeegee and will see how well it matches.
How did this work?

The color match is fairly good. Better than what I've seen for photos with the Ford and other solutions.

I find the application method of squeegeeing across the pits to not be the best. I've tried it a bunch and still struggle with the correct technique to leave paint in the chip but have the squeegee work well. The chips are deep (bumper paint is thick) so there is pretty much always a recess. From 5' it looks good but from 1' you can see the depressions where chips were filled.
The towel and solution to then wipe off any paint around the chip works well.
Kind of tedious and not easy to get consistent results in each chip.

Overall I would recommend their kit, better than anything else I've used thus far.
