i have a dark grey cooper S and have decided to touch up some rock chips with the factory paint pen and was wondering if anybody could walk me through it. thanks

 

Try www.langka.com they have the blob fixer and it works great, very easy. Steps are shown on their web.site

 

Very Strange.. I tried the www.lanka.com and got a message I have never seen before..

"The Domain name www.lanka.com has been suspended"

Weird

 

Depending on how big the chips are I actually find that a toothpick works great. When you try to "Paint" the chips you get brush strokes and it looks awful. Just stick a toothpick in the touchup and dab the chip to fill it up with a drop of paint. It works better if there is still primer under the chip but it should still look fine with no primer. You can clear it if you want, but when you start adding lots of layers it gets more difficult to get the paint thickness correct and you're going to have rough spots.

In my opinion the rock chip thing is a losing battle My front facia is so chipped its unbelievable. It'd be a full time job keeping it free of chips. You're better off getting everything repainted and installing a clearbra.

 

sorry that's www.langka.com
