Who this list is for
Small stone chips on an otherwise sound sports car finish call for careful cosmetic touch-up supplies, not collision repair materials. This list helps an owner gather matching products and clean application tools.
How to use this list
Confirm the paint code before buying color-matched touch-up paint and matching clear coat touch-up paint. Prepare wax and grease remover, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free applicator cloths, fine-tip brushes, mixing cups, wooden mixing sticks, masking tape, microfiber towels, and a magnifying light. Keep nitrile gloves and a dust mask with the work supplies. Review the paint leveling solution, fine sanding pads, drying stand, and automotive wax for use after the curing period described by the product.
What to skip
Skip deep scratch repair, collision repair, and any attempt to match paint without paint code confirmation. Do not apply automotive wax before the touch-up product's stated curing period. Avoid using dirty towels or broad, uncontrolled applicators on small chips.
What is on this list
This list includes paint identification, color and clear coat touch-up paint, cleaning supplies, precise brushes, mixing tools, protective gear, and finishing supplies. The magnifying light and drying stand help keep small work organized. Cross off supplies you already have in clean condition.
When you are done
Let the touch-up materials cure according to their product instructions. Store paint, brushes, cloths, and mixing supplies together for future small chips. Use automotive wax only after the stated curing period, and seek appropriate repair help for damage beyond minor cosmetic touch-up.
