sjbrowning7 Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I was washing my car today and it was covered with tar. When I was going over it all I noticed so many stone chips and marks. So gutting, any advice with any products that would help the little devil? Quote
H_D Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Im having my front bumper pained this weekend due to stone chips. My painter said he is going to use some special primer which will help dampen the stones when they hit the paint and it should not go through the paint. The primer is also black so even if it went through the paint it will not be noticed. Quote
sjbrowning7 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Posted May 28, 2013 I hate fucking stone chips!! Oh mummy! That's bad. I thought mine were bad... Ha mine are just small but quite a lot of them. It's very annoying! Quote

Arnold Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Got mine resprayed as it looked awful, and a few others touched up. I don't think there's much that will prevent it from happening Quote
scottyb Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I have a stone chip on the side of my car, right down to the bare metal its now beginning to rust about the length of my index finger has began to rust so gonna get it resprayed! Just wish i could afford a full respray Quote
Bryan-4E-FTE Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Oh mummy! That's bad. I thought mine were bad... Ha mine are just small but quite a lot of them. It's very annoying! Yeah mate..Because of one of those reasons i want to break the car but when i look at her im falling in love again en well...im getting it fixed in a few weeks with almost a full respray Quote
Amjad Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 You can get protective clear wrap. If and when I get my car resprayed I'll be getting the wrap put on the front Quote
Glanza-Ben Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I had my car resprayed then driving Upto castle combe a week later on the motor way a stone flicked up and bang straight onto my new livesports spoiler and its stands out like a sore thumb Quote
Liam_D Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 You can get protective clear wrap. If and when I get my car resprayed I'll be getting the wrap put on the frontI have this, it's incredible stuff! Quote
sjbrowning7 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Posted May 28, 2013 They totally ruin the car which is a pain in the hoop but there is 3 things I hate more. 1. Tar 2. Bugs and 3. Bird shit. I am scared to drive my car cause I like it gleaming and it's not an easy job. What is the wrap stuff? Does it just look like lacquer? Quote
melon Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 You can get protective clear wrap. If and when I get my car resprayed I'll be getting the wrap put on the front I have this too on the bonnet bumper and wings. Had it done with a complete respray and I think it cost around £70 which was worth it in my eyes. Just got to wait and see if it bubbles now haha Most bodyshops should be able to get it from you?

morgey Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 A mate had this on his scoob, worked wonders, any vinyl place should be able to do it. Quote
sjbrowning7 Posted May 29, 2013 Author Posted May 29, 2013 When I get a respray I'll most likely want the whole car wrapped in that stuff, can't have too much protection from those bleeding stones and rocks in Bryan-4E-FTE's case lol Quote
