    Stone Chip repair guidance

    Hey guys,

    I was driving down a main road the other day when some erratic idiot speed out in front of me kicking up a bunch of rocks that resulted in the worlds tiniest chip on my windscreen, and two 3mm x 3mm stone chips on my roof. Both spots have been chipped back to bare metal and was wondering the best course of action.

    Touch up paint and a buff? Franchise chip repairer? etc. etc.

    The way I would do it...touch a bit of primer on to the bare metal, get your paint, mix it will a tiny about of hardener and lacquer. Touch in chip till its a high spot, flat down polish.

      I haven't tried this personally, but it seems to be highly rated in various online fora.
