Rock Chips
Hey all got a small problem with my recently bought S500 behind the headlight wipers and around the grille(not bad @ all) i have the "WORLD FAMOUS" Rock Chips,But my question is why so much behind the wiper blade? and if anyone else has this problem and if so how much did it set you back to get them taking out by the pro's? i dont want to just touch them up i want to get rid of them 100%..plus has anyone tried those clear bra like tint for the front of cars???

I am currently working on getting out the chips in my S500 Coupe. I went by an automotive paint store an got a brush that has a bunch of fiberglass strands in it to clean out the chips. I then built up the chip with touch-up paint. I then went to Pepboys and purchaced some 2000 wet/dry paper. I used some Meguires Quick Detail as a lubricant as I carefully sanded the touch-up paint down. Once I had it level, I then used the Meguires paint cleaner ( it was what I had in the garage) to buff out the dull spot that the sanding left. So far it works pretty good.
I am going to try to Zanio the car this weekend.
