The key to the DIY chip repair, especially on metallic is thin layers to get just the color under the remaining paint. Then slightly over full with clear and fine sand [2000 -3000 grit), buff.

Tricolors are much harder

Dude, I feel your pain. I live in Northern Virginia and they have been repairing/repaving the main interstate here for the last few years. There are dump trucks and gravel trucks on all the roads all the time and the roads are strewn with rocks and pebbles! I've had to replace three windshields on different cars over the last few years! I take the back roads with my baby, and so far, so good.
