Stone chip repair
We’re in France at the moment, enjoying the good weather, food and wine. Visited Honfleur yesterday and travelled on a mix of roads, some of which had been recently resurfaced with loose chippings. I’ve now got quite a few stone chips on the doors and wondered if anyone could recommend one of the paint repair kits available from Dr Colourchip, Chipex that seem to be designed to fix this sort of damage? I’d be pleased to hear your experiences or perhaps other methods that you use to fix chipped paint.
Thanks. Peter.

I've bought the touch up paint from this company a few times now and found them to be a good reliable source.
Use an artist's fine brush, not the one in the screw top..finish with lacquer.
Prep is key, and maybe watch a few YT videos if you've not done anything like it before.
Remember, it won't make the chip disappear, but will take the eye away from a colour difference.2011 MY D4 HSE
