Repairing stone chips
G021832
1. Place a strip of masking tape over the dam-
aged 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 thor-
oughly; 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.
