Stone Chip Repair Kits - any of these any good?

[AbbieCadabra]

my beauty is just over 2 years old & has 3 or 4 quite deep stone chips on the bonnet

i know DIY repair doesn't look too great, but i don't want to leave them for much longer.

i've found these kits on ebay - anybody know of or used any of them? (i think the 2nd one is the official MB kit?).

Haven't tried any of the ones listed but have used halfords own & the colour match(brilliant silver for mine) is very good,the kit is only about £10

i like an excuse to have a wander around Halfords , thanks

yep i agree the halfords onces are much better than the MB ones.. the pin tip actually allows you to put just the right amount of paint on the chip.

Personally, i use Halfords aerosol, spray it into its own lid, & then apply with an artists brush while its still runny/alive with its own thinners. You dont get that horrid 'blob' of paint look.
