chipped paint

[Howard Roark]

tsips!

may gasgas ang tsikot ko sa bumper. may pininahan kasi ako na wall, di ko napansin na may gi pipe pala na nakausli sa baba . gasgas tuloy na around 4 inches, labas ang fiberglass sa bumper with some not so deep scratches.

I bought nippon metallic quicksilver spray paint PYLOX ( I assumed its the same with my altis' quicksilver paint), some fine sandpaper and some rubbing compound.

I am planning to sand the area to minimise the deep scratch, spray paint it, then smoothen again with rubbing compund.

I know that this wont eliminate the scratches but I hope it will make it somewhat unnoticeable. I am planning to buy wrap around kits pag nakaipon, doon ko na lang pa fix yung problema pag paint nila nung kits baka pwede tawad.

Any suggestions? Is it ok to spray the area with PYLOX clear coat too?

THANKS!!!

*Chain,

Anu ulet? alin dyan ung store name at ung Paint brand name? hehe, paki rephrase naman ung message mo, hehe

di na kc ako naggandahan sa gawa ng dati naming latero + painter eh, nagcchip-Off ung paint, pakonti konti nga lng, unNoticeable, pero pag close up, halata, so hanap ako mas magandang shop na skilled tlga, downside is, di na ako makakadiscount, tpos ung mga konting favors, cguro di na marerequest, hehe

yung mica refers to the glitters dun sa paint mo. as in pearl-mica pigmented paint surfaces. i'm not sure of what brand of paint is being used now with honda but around 2-3 years back, I'm quite certain na NAX ang paint na ginagamit.

OT: recently nung nagpatimpla ako ng night-hawk black sa suki kong paintshop sa banawe, the owner related to me that alot of new owners ng honda vehicles nagpapatimpla uli sa kanya. apparently, hindi daw maganda ang paint na ginagamit ngayon.

For me, I got hold of a Paint Chip Repair system (Mom's) from Renault.
I tried it na on a small section of my car which was hit by the handlebar of a pedicab in C5. I managed to get it down to barely noticeable by me (and completely invisible by others, ehehehe). My car's paint is Nighthawk Black.

Pag may tuklap na paint na kasing laki ng 25 centavos kaya pa i touch up? Sa loob ng pintuan.....hindi naman kita pag nakasarado pero gusto ko ipaayos.

Magkano aabutin?
