Repair the paint chip in your car today before it grows into a bigger cost.
Fix Small Chips
This is a common rock chip that is easy to be able to repair with this technique. Even when the paint chip on your car is as large as one-fourth of a nickel, it is still possible to fix it.
Too Far Gone
This is a paint chip that could have been fixed long ago.
Clean the Paint Chips
Pro tip: A dozen of swirls should accomplish the task. The excessive rubbing could harm the clearcoat that covers the paint and create an unclean mess.
Clean the Finish
Cleanse the finish using denatured alcohol.
Pro tip: Avoid flooding your surface with alcohol. A few wipes with a damp, soft cloth is enough.
Apply the Primer
Apply a little primer using the back end of a match stick.
Get Your Touch-Up Paint and Primer
If you're not certain of the color code of your vehicle, you'll need to look it up on the identification plate of your vehicle.
You can also buy a small jar from an auto primer.
Paint the Chip
Apply a small amount of paint on top of your primer coat.
A word of caution: Do not attempt this repair under a hot sun or when the temperature is lower than 50°F.
