Stone chip repair?

I have a stone chip by my door handle that I see everytime I get in the car. What is the best way to fix this?

sometimes red can easily be touched up. It's probably the easiest color IMO. Try one of those paint pens, and some sand paper and then buff it out.

If it's on the actual handle, just take the handle off and have a body shop do it.

Great system assuming you can get factory touch-up paint.

No need for body shop.

Interesting...I checked out their site. I'm just down the road from you near Del Mar. Mind if I see you use it sometime to see how it works and the results?

Have you used this stuff? Also interesting for those who might have "hate" marks on the sides, I wonder if that would work there too???

I have this stuff and have tried to use it. I can't get the hang of using it properly and I always end up back at the start.

Thanks Neil for that reply, I just wanted some real feedback. It seems pretty easy to use but sometimes those gizmos on "TV" do too.....

The only thing that I ever bought from TV that really worked and I still use is that darn Magic Bullet.... I can blend a mean egg.....
