STONE CHIPS - AAARRRGHHH - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Hi Everybody,

Does anyone have a tried and trusted method of making those terrible things look as close to gone!!! I have the original BMW touch up paint for my sapphire black baby. What is the best way to paint them in... Any suggested methods would be welcomed.

Look up 'langka'.

Also, when i touch up, NEVER USE THE BRUSH. Get a toothpick, and get a tiny little blob on the tip of it, and apply it to fill in the little 'hole' in the paint little by little.

Last thing you want to do is make things look worse. Above method has always worked for me.

has anyone noticed that the paint chips very easily. I have more paint chips on my bimmer with 1600 miles, then on my honda civic with 35k. you would think that BMW aint would hold up better.
