putty huh. never would have thought of that. i always wondered how to fill in the whole left. I thought people just put A LOT of paint on it and called it that. But that makes more since.

 

found a really good article on repairing paint chips and scratches. I haven't tried this method yet myself, but it makes sense and is very close to the repair method we've used to touch-up laqueron say cabinets , etc. (interior painter)

you'll have to scroll about half way down the page to see the part which refers to paint chips and scratches, but the rest is interesting also.

Turtle wax sells a colored wax in black and red. Doesn't repair the chip, just fills in the white scratch or spot to make it less noticable.

I have used touch up paint and a tooth pick to hide chips on my chin spoiler.
