chipped paint on bumper

The Devil's Advocate 27 January 2005 11:53:03
 I recently got my bumper painted a few months ago because it was
scratced. Cost me a few hundred but it was worth it. Now last weekend,
someone hit my car and took out a chip of paint the size of half a
dime. I'm just fuming! The touch up paint kit isn't working. I know VW
had two kinds of touch up kits, one that applies something like nail
polish, the second sprays on. I tried the nail polish type. Don't know
if the spray on would yield better results. Is there any option for me
other than shelling out a few hundred more to have it painted again???

 Forget it. Bumpers get scratched every day, and so do car doors. The only
way to prevent them is to not drive your car.

 You can "blend" (or "spot") in the area for alot cheaper. The painter will
have to use a blending agent that's compatable with whatever type of paint
he used.
But as the other fellow said: if you're going to drive your car you need
to learn to live with small chips & scratches - they happen.
Of course, the guy that HIT you *should* have to pay to repair the damage,
small chip or not!

Perhaps something like this could give you an idea?

 First thing I do on most my cars is put this 3m adhesive stuff on my front
bumper. Its like this clear vinyl stuff, kinda like saran wrap. Its cool,
because i've rubber my front bumber on another car when I was backing out,
and all I did was peel off the stuff and put new stuff on. Also, water and
dirt just peel right off it, kinda like that teflon stuff. I know this
doesnt help you know, but its good for the future
