Hey everyone, Fall is coming, and soon to be winter. My car was badly chipped from summer work roads (every route i could think of to get to work was on construction)

I need a recommendation on where to get touch up paint, kits, etc and how would i approach on touching up my hood, doors

Thanx in advance, and i hope everyone else who needs to touch up , do so before the winter salting comes as well

 

dealership has bottles of touch up paint

there are also products that help out even and smooth out the touch up paint process.

 

the dealer has bottles of the color you need.. i had to do this after some A-Hole door dinged my car.. i used a tooth pic to apply it because the brush was way to much for the area i needed.. then i went over it with a clear nail polish and then buffed it out and you can barley tell.. also 3m makes a good rubbing compound that you can try depending on how big the chip is.. i used it on my hood.. its not cheap though its like 35 bucks a bottle and i got it at napa autoparts.. hope this helps

 

does the dealer also have the clearcoat and primer as well?

i can just go to the parts department at the dealer correct?

tooth pick sounds like a good idea, i got plenty of dings that a tooth pick would defintly be better than using a brush
thanx for the tip

i saw a couple of people recommending this on autopia.org
but i've yet to try it. i figure i'll try it before i trade/sell my car in a few years. i will need it by then anyways

 

i'll check that out, but like i said, if you are gettin snow around your area, and you have chips, mind as well get a touch up paint kit now and patch some of those spots. I got some spots that can see metal since winter was over. I need to cover them up incase they rust up this winter.

god i hate flying rocks!
