I was driving on the turnpike (highway), all of a sudden I heard stones hitting the front of my car,
there was a truck in the middle lane dropping rocks everywhere . I wasn't the only one affected by it. I tried to get away from it,but it was already too late. I have about 40 chips on the hood,fenders, and bumper. I dont want to repaint the car. Advices please, methods of painting chips etc, polishing perhaps

Try this http://autopia.org/forum/guide-detai...nt-clinic.html
..about half way down they describe how to apply touch-up paint to make it look like it never happened...i, personally, haven't tried it but it looks like it will help your situation. |

I got stuck behind a gravel/sand truck for 10 miles on the PA turnpike about 2 months ago. The front of my car looks like da pooh. I'm going to get it repainted then I'm getting the 3M clear bra. I think it's the only way, my friend. Sorry. |
