chips

Hope this is the right section for this! Does anyone know how to remove multiple tiny chips in a windscreen, caused by gritters? Can't see them normally, but when the sun shines directly onto the screen, they're really visible!

Whilst trying to paint over some stone chips on my bonnet I found that the new paint was leaving a very dark perimeter edge. It's hard to explain sorry, but the car is silver, the new paint matches quite well, but the edges of the new paint seem to be many shades darker. Any suggestions or...

I have two stone chips on the bonnet of the car which have started to go rusty. If I want to maintain the Mobilo do I need to get the repairs done at a MB approved paint shop? If I didn't use an MB approved paint shop will Mobilo still be unaffected should any other body panel start to...

I washed the car this morning and discovered a couple of small chips in the paintwork on the front wing. It looks like they may have been caused when i had the car in the workshop a few days ago, but i don't suppose anyone will admit to it. I was thinking of using Chips Away, but thought i...
