    Any recommendations on a good paint chip repair kit, I had a rock hit my rear door and took a chip of paint clear to the metal the size of this * but to me look like a half dollar coin :frusty:
    The wife says it's just a truck don't be so obsessed, is it just me or do you guys get a little OCD!


    Every time I used the Toyota 040 little touch up bottle it just leave a blob of paint!

    I heard about this

    Never used Dr. Colorchip....but these guys I have had great luck with. You can get it in a pen, small touch up bottles or even aerosol.

    Thanks for the replies, does any one like the Toyota brand touch up with the little brush, It just seems to hide it with a blob of paint, lol

    I bought one but haven't used it yet as my truck is dirty from the crappy weather, I've got a good chunk on my A pillar that luckily didn't hit the windshield because the size of this baby would have definitely ruined it.
