Bad stone chip

[Gnollins]

A large stone recently had a disagreement with the bonnet of my black LCR leaving a small dent and a deep scratch and stone chip.

I'm not bothered about getting the dent pressed out as it's barely noticeable. However, what's the best way to deal with the stone chip? It's approx 5mm x 3mm in size and has gone through to the metal.

I have Turtlewax and T-cut black polish but both have not managed to effectively fill the gap.

Any help much appreciated!

happened to me too mate - right in the centre of my bonnet !

Couldn't live with it - so booked it into the dealer & got a full bonnet respray...

Good as new !! ...however 220 squids lighter !

It's very difficult to try to mask a chip on the bonnet - but a touch up pen should make it look a bit better & will prevent rust setting in - I would do that ASAP in this weather !!

I'm continually applying the t-cut polish just now to keep the salt out!

Will see if Halfrauds have a touch up pen today.

My chip is right beside the S symbol - very noticeable. £220 sounds steep for just a bonnet respray.
