    Hey guys, I’ve got a few rock chips on my MGM hood and was wondering what’s the best touch up paint to use and where should I get it?

    appreciate the assistance!

    I did touch up taint on my hood and after a day or 2 and a wash it was gone.

    I have read good reviews using Dr. Color Chip to repair scratches and chips.

    If the primer is still there, hit up the parts department at your dealership. They can sell you exact match touch up paint, but they think it's worth it's weight in gold. If it's down to the bare metal, you will need more than just paint to protect it.

    Thanks for the quick responses guys, yes, the primer is still there. I’ll see what my dealership has and I’m also going to check out Dr. Color Chip.
