Re: Paint Chips....errrrrrrr
I have always just found mobile units that go to dealerships. They fill the chip/scratch, then sand then clear.
Most chip repair kits are a single stage paint. They have clear that is supposed to rise to the top of the paint. However they always turn out matte. For the best results in chip repair you can use a paint match from the dealership. Wet sand it flat. Apply a clear coat. Then buff with a cutting compound first. such as 1500 grit. then move to 2000 grit. and finially a sealer wax.
While many people can deal with the paint pens and brushes, most of the time they look like painted bubles... or painted chips.

I use a permanent marker on the small spots, then again my car is black. I have the touch up paint and try to avoid it, I am no Monet. The dealership touchup paint has both a brushtip and pentip on it. I think I paid $10 for it at your friendly Ford dealer.

theres a place by me that does a great job on this i think its called NAB they do ferraris and all that crap. They use an airbrush method for touchups and do great with wetsanding (whole car or touchups which makes a regular stock paintjob look AWESOME) and a bunch of other crap if you want the web address Ill get it for you

Good luck with the chips, Laura.
I'm dreading mine.. metallic paint. Basic colors are so much better for that sort of thing.
Seems like ya got a lot of good advice though =)

Re: Paint Chips....errrrrrrr
Have it repainted and have the 3M chip protection that I have on mine applied. Not to mention behind rear tires to eliminate the burned rubber laying on the paint and anything else that kicks up
