I tried Tesla's "paint repair kit" (aka touch up paint) to fix a few scratches on my Model S this week. How well did it work? Let's find out...

Dude, u didn’t follow the instructions and I don’t even think u used the blending solution that comes with the kit. That really helps the colour match more

Proposition 65 is a California law that mandates warnings about exposure to over 900 chemicals. It's specific to California and requires products containing any of these chemicals to bear a warning label. This includes everyday items like coffee. The law is unique to California, so you won't find these labels in other states. Even cars sold in California have cancer warning labels, while the same car sold in Texas won't. The law applies to various places, from gas stations to hospitals. Companies often opt to include warnings on their products to protect themselves from potential lawsuits, regardless of whether the product actually contains any of the listed chemicals.

besides not following the instructions you made no mention of shaking the paint bottle well which is rule #1 for any paint. That would make the color different and set time/hardness

Uhhhh you only did like 33% of what you are supposed to do. At 0:45 for example.. THAT'S NOT a paint removal solution that clearly says Blending solution.. and you didn't even use it...

Are you sure it wasn't for the wheels? That dark grey looks more similar to the wheels rather than the one of the car.

I don’t have personal experience but Dirty Tesla tried it a while ago. That one matched fine and the squeegee worked differently too, not sure if this is some batch issue or.. bad QA or what. Still probably for the best to go with someone else rather than some overpriced touch-up paint, though.

That kit isn’t meant for your type of damage. It’s meant for very small scratches

Aside from the largest one, how do those other scratches not qualify as very small? And how would being small make the color match any better?

So much for the scratchless and stainless paint that wont let stuff stain your paint. But I spray painted my tesla with spray paint let it dry fir 2 days amd it came right off in seconds lol

Have a feeling as if you did not read the instructions at all, no shaking of paint bottle & applying the bleeding solution to name a few

This is a great video to show my kids whats wrong with getting guidance from youtube. I guess you've never recieve a product sold in Cakifronia? everything has this warning, paint, drywall, computer parts. This review includes unboxing but throwing the directions away and then a complaint about the product. What did you end up using that was better?

That looks like an older Model S in silver but the paint looks like a Model 3/Y Midnight Silver which is a darkish grey.

right on a bend or crease is probably not a good place to give an example, unless you are really good at this type of work. It's not the squeegee taking off the pain, it's really you, but I'm sure you know that. That is also a relatively large area. Thanks for the review anyway. I doubt I would've done any better to tell you the truth.

I tried it, color was a match, and I followed directions exactly, but squeegee took paint out of chip spot everytime. No good, waste of money

Your comments on the cancer warning is over the top. Dam near everything, especially in Commifornia with all your prop warnings.
