I've used it and it works great for the really small chips, especially road rash. I recommend it.

One chip in 4000 miles? Lucky. You should see my black GT. I swear I get a new chip every time I drive the thing. Places where it snows - lots of gravel, sand on the road and it almost never gets totally cleared off.

LOL, if it's your dd then you will get MORE CHIPS MAN.... sorry. My car has like 61k on it and has only a few chips on the hood. It's important to keep A LOT of wax and SEALANT under the wax to prevent this! My bumper was so pitted, i got it repainted at my dads Toyota dealer, and looks just like factory! That cost $120 for both bumpers, but i got the boss' son discount Get used to the chips man! If your car is black, I'm sorry!

1 small paint chip? easy solution... buy a new car! j/k.


if your car is a daily driver, i wouldn't stress on it. just like the others here say, there will be more. be grateful that it wasnt a bigger chip or worse.

Whether its a daily driver or not you'll get chips.

Duplicolor has this video demo that should take the fear out of doing it yourself.

Here's the link.

I've got 9,500 miles on my GT (got it in March) and have about 5 paint chips on the hood already... it sucks, but it's a car. It's going to get more and more.

+1 on this! A friend recommended this product to me and it works great. You clean the area and touch it up with the touch up paint. After it start to dry (but not too long, they recommend 2-4 hours), you place some of their stuff on a rag and rub it back and forth over the area until its even with the surface. Then clearcoat and you're all set. You'll be surprised how well it comes out!
