Stone Chip Repairs

Stone chips are the most common type of car body damage that affects all types of cars. They generally occur when driving on motorways or main roads where the car in front's tyres flick up small stones from the roads surface toward the car following behind. The impact of the stone takes a section of paint and lacquer of the cars surface, how much depends on the size and speed of the stone; the most common effected panels are usually the bonnet, bumper and front wings.

Repairing stone chips can be carried out by a body shop, smart repair service or you can even have ago yourself with a bit of DIY. Body shops would tend to re-spray the entire panel no matter how few chips there are, while a smart repair service will re-spray just the areas where the chips are and not the entire panel. There is a big difference on price between the smart repair service and body shop service where the body shop is the more expensive. You could always just repair the stone chips yourself, the best way to do this is not to try and spray them with an aerosol for you can't control the flow and are more likely to make a mess of the repair than make it any better, try and buy a touch up stick and touch in the stone chips with an artist brush, it won't make them look perfect but it will take them off the eye when you glance at them.

As you can see there are a few ways to have stone chips repaired, which one you decide is all dependent on your requirements and needs.
