Repairing stone chips
G021832
1. Place a strip of masking tape over the
damaged surface. Pull the tape off so that
any loose flakes of paint adhere to it.
2. Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it
with a small brush.
3. When the primer surface is dry, the paint
can be applied using a brush. Mix the
paint thoroughly; apply several thin paint
coats and let dry after each application.
4. If there is a longer scratch, you may want
to protect surrounding paint by masking it
off
5. After a few days, polish the touched-up
areas. Use a soft rag and a small amount
of polish.
