How do you deal with rock chips- Paint recommendations
Seems this year was bad for getting rock chips and door dings all over my car. I go out of my way to park at empty areas in store parking lots but im amazed at how many times ill come out and someone is parked right next to me and theres nothing but empty spaces everywhere else. Its maddening.
Ive seen plenty of videos on how to repair rock chips but im wondering if anyone has an easy way that works for them. I previously bought a small nail polish bottle sized container of color match paint off ebay and it blends in just ok. I have only really used it on the plastic bumpers where chips of paint flaked right off. I dont really care how well these come out but the rock chips on my hood and a few dings on the doors I want to get as good as i can. Im seeing some rust so this is the main reason i want to get it done before winter.
Ill either use the brush in the bottle to apply it, or if the chip is small ill dip a syringe in the bottle and use the tip of the needle to dab the paint in the chip.
Ive searched around for a small bottle of color match pain but havent come up with many options. Does anyone know a good color match paint to get? My paint is 755U Tenorite Gray Metallic Paint. I will say the Tenorite Gray exterior with the Alpaca gray color interior is the best color combination in the entire world.

I heard good reviews with Dr. Color Chip and Langka Paint Kit as well, never personally used it myself though. The former company custom mix the paint for your vehicle.
