« on: September 16, 2014, 09:47:46 pm »
Hi

Does anyone know any good products or any ideas on how to fix small stone chips. I have a very small chip on driver side door.....

Worth filling and sanding then painting any ideas

No sorry wouldn't have a clue, i doubt that if i were to even look down the page at about the 10th or 11th topic below this one i wouldn't see anything on the subject of stone chips. Certainly by the time i got to the bottom of the 1st page there  definitely wouldn't be any discussions on stone chips.

I'd start a new thread if i were you  :happy2:

Paints4u do great stone chip kits.

i would clean the chip , then build up with layers paint over a week or so. Then wet sand flush and polish. Will look great.
