Hi
Just trying to find out how to go about fixing little stone chips in the paintwork?
My car is polanisian green and little stone chips show up like dogs balls on the bonnet because they only chip the fist coat and then show up the white undercoat :|

Would it make it look like s**t if I used that little brush that ford give ya to touch it up? Or would it be better to get it sprayed by a crash repairer?

Thanks

use a toothpick to work the paint into the stone chip hole.

haha ive never heard of that paint.

basically you work it in from the outside to the centre, with a little blob of paint on the end of the toothpick.

it worked fine for me, and didnt get any paint on the actual clear either.
