My jazz seems to have stone chips??
« on: July 08, 2010, 09:41:10 PM »
How can I 'sort it out?' My bro said there is some 'stick' you can get like a crayon to colour the chips in....... but I dont really understand! I dont want them to become rust patches!! Please help!!

Its an 03 blue (light blue).

Go to your local dealer and ask to buy a little bottle of paint in the correct colour. It'll cost you less than a tenner. You need a steady hand to dab the paint into the chip with the built-in brush. It'll be a better match than any crayon.

Not unless the "chip" penetrated down to bare metal. Even then there is a constituent in the touch up stick paint that will prevent rust setting in. Just keep a cloe eye on them after applying the paint.

I got this thouch-up paint with built-in brush. Anyone knows what is this marked, kind of tip of a pen, for?

The brush supplied with touch up paint is often too big to be used for filling in very small paint chips.   I use a tooth pick dabbed with paint to fill in stone chips.  

Correction: my Honda touch up paint stick has a detachable steel brush in the lid for removing rust

The thing at the top is probably a wire brush for removing rust.
