Cought a Rock, chipped my front end Help!
What is the best repair or way to hide a stone chip on the front bumper? It's pin-head size, and deep, right throught the paint. Or I can just leave it?

Don't know how it will look with touch-up paint. |

Any ideas? |
Dr.ColorChip Custom Automotive Touch-Up Paint Kit - Dr. ColorChip: Automotive Paint Chip Repair Systems works and the best is a clear bra :tup:
|
FWIW, I would avoid Dr Color Chip at all costs. I have a pearl white 370, and it didn't even come close to matching. Clear bra is a must...and for touch ups -stick to dealer paints.

Yes go with the dealer paint or go to a body shop and have them color match one for you.
|
dealer touchup paint and Langka to smooth it out...
|
I don't know how easy it is to use but I've seen some really great touch up jobs with a syringe with a tiny brush at the end
Touch-Up Paint Syringes, 2 Count - Griot's Garage best thing to do is get one of those and get the touch paint pen as well ... I just can't find myself to trust the pen because it rarely leaves a smooth finish .. if not time to call The Junkman :D |
I used Dr Color Chip when I caught a rock ding on my hood. You can see it if you look but it is a lot better than not doing anything.

i got a dealer touch up stick. for my MB. cost under 15.00
i had a small chip on front of the hood. so far it's worked pretty good. no one but me could tell where its at. when its time to trade. |

I use small artist's brushes. They're much more accurate than the thick brush included with most OTC touch-up paints. A magnifying glass is helpful, too.
