Stonechips and door dings

[redchina]

while washing the car recently, i have noticed how many stone ships on the bonnet and some tw@t has opened their door into the side of the car recently as well.

without paying dealer prices $$$ or a body shop for a front end respray...
where would the best bet be to find colour matched touch up paint here in Perth?

i am prepared to spend the time myself doing all the cutting and polishing if i cant find a cheap alternative, but does anyone know where to get the kit to do the job?

cheers all : )

I would go to a main dealer for touchup personally. Wherever you go its not going to be 100% perfect. I had my scratch done by a mobile guy, who can be found in another thread. Pistonheads has an anti name and shame policy so i cant say it was not worth the 200 bucks it cost to "sort" my bumper. Need to book it into bodyshop to try to salvage it with some serious rotary action

Cheers for that.
I would PM you, but i cant find out how to do that on this forum, is it disabled?

anyway, i was at the North Honda garage (i am fairly sure this isnt Naming and Shaming) and it was going to be a front end respray....and $800.
not something i need to do at the moment, (last service was $2200..) and really, with the right tools all it would take is time.


i have phoned a guy that works out of the HP building. so hope that goes ok.

If you click on my name you can email me, not sure about PM's myself!
Edited to say that auto one stores are also supposed to offer a touch up paint service in tins and aerosol cans.
