APART FROM THE OBVIOUS HOLE IN THE POCKET RESPRAY, ANY SUGGESTIONS ON GETTING RID OF STONE CHIPS ON A BLUE ASTRA GSI WITH WHITE PRIMER UNDERNEATH. STARTING TO PISS ME OFF NOW. WHY THE HELL DID VAUXHALL GO AND USE A WHITE PRIMER!!

 

[Vectra Dave]

Get an aerosol of the right paint from halfords, spray some into the lid and wait for it to thicken ever so slightly, then use a cocktail stick to place single drops into each chip. It wont look perfect, but looks heaps better than white spots everywhere. Polishing your car with any kind of polish that dries to a white powder leaves residue in all imperfections, making them more obvious, so using something like Colour Magic polish will help too.

Just tried this Color Magic Plus which includes the little lipstick (that's what the girlfriend calls it) which is supposed to fill in the stone chips. Bollocks, don't waste your money on it!!
Dave i'll have a go at your idea, cheers m8.

I use the turtle wax chipstick and it works great. Depends how you use it I guess.

I jus colour in the chip and surrounding area like a big crayon till the chip dissapears then rub ove it with a cloth to take the excess off and et voila the chip is gone

Think you've got problems? U have'nt seen my paint! My car has got the dreaded metallic blue peel/flake syndrome. The grey primer shows through in patches- the previous owner has done some kind of botch job with touch up paint. I've got stone chips too so might try davies idea. Also coloured wax and restorer can work to cover up chips temporarily.

Don't drive on really stoney drives they destroy your paintwork, if you've got new grips anyhoo. touch up paint is good but not if you have blended colour like mine.

Try havin a black GTE with the full stone chipped bonnet and white primer, plus my back arches have gone blue from the moisture getting underneath paintwork.

I was going to try a chipstick but I think I'll just try colour polish.

Colour polishes are crap they just turn the chip from white to a light bright blue (if your car was blue) this colour stick sounds interesting I might try that on mine.
