In my case it didn't fill the scratch but it did hide them very well. The body shop quoted me $700 for the repair, so i'm happy with the value here.

not a bad product for the money, it did a reasonable touchup on the rear brake duct front edge that gets sandblasted on my z06, standing next to the car you really don't see it anymore, get within a couple feet and then yes. But it worked well for what it is, well enough that I'm going to try it on the stone chips on my c5 this weekend.

Good to hear!
I tried one of their kits a few months ago after driving my new Z06 to Alaska from San Diego. I had a lot of road rash on the lower rockers, lower doors and rear quarter panels / brake duct scoops. Given that, I purchased the largest kit available (1 oz. paint and 4 oz. solution for $59).
It was actually enough to do ALL the affected areas; I still have about 1/4 of the paint left and 1/4 of the solvent left. Admittedly, I was using the product sparingly as I did not know how much it would cover. Over the winter I'm going to buy another kit and go over those areas again to help hide them even more.
I was pleased with how well the kit works. For the price, it's an excellent alternative to a repaint (my damage was estimated at $3600). It hid 90% of the rash on the rockers and lower doors; I really have to get on my hands and knees and look close to find the 1000's of minor chips I had. The quarter panels didn't recover quite so well, but those chips were larger. Even so, instead of being painfully obvious, they are camouflaged well enough that I only see them in certain light conditions, and they are visible from farther away.
If you buy this expecting your car to look like it was nicely repainted, you will be disappointed... it's not a miracle pill; BUT: it certainly got my car improved enough that I am no longer considering that repaint, and nobody sees those trouble areas anymore because they really blended out well. Its a bargain for the price, and I'm happy to hear that Autogeek carries this now!

It works well with certain colors. I had a silver Forerunner in the shop and the paint was not even close. The owner bought a dealership bottle of touchup and it was much closer. Silver is tough one to touchup. had a Midnite Blue(non-metallic) Benz that I fixed some scratches and it did a decent job.
