• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

I mostly commute on the highway and have accumulated a few chips in my hood. So i went to the dealer and picked up a paint pen. Here is how it turned out. The pen has a clear and a color side. The directions say they do not recommend applying clear over the color for some reason so i didn't. Just dab the pen on the chip several times until there is enough paint to cover. It's a little like a felt marker and the directions also say not to move it side to side to apply the paint. I messed up once and used nail polish remover to remove all the paint before letting it dry to try again. Overall its very easy to use and cost about $17. Much better than letting it rust! I had to get it done before winter.

Glad to see the chips were on the 'waterfall' portion of the hood... I know that doesn't sound nice, but it means the hood deflector I did was worth the effort...
