Best way to touch up your paint clean ?

Before anything I did do a search.. and nothing really was clear everyone just about said try some product called Langka which I think is just BS.

Does anyone know a method that prevents blobs and is the smoothes way possible ?... I have a really small chip on my hood which just itches me everytime I see it due to the fact I just had the car painted....

Thanks

I have heard of doing touch-ups in thin coats until it is above the surface of the surrounding paint, then lightly sanding it down with very fine paper and then polishing it out. Like I said, I have heard about doing it, but haven't actually tried it yet.

Yes that is the best method , I've done it sveral times, use 1500 grit sand paper and sand it down very lightly while the sand paper is wet.
