Two issues here I am combining for the sake of brevity:
1. Noticed one of my alloys seems to have been repsrayed, the area concerned seems to lack the colour and laquer finish of the other wheels. Also, some light curbing on several of the rims. Kind of blended it in using a touch up pen, but want it to look 100%. What are my options? Never worked on wheels before.
2. Stone chips. Got several small chips on my bonnet and front grille, and have used a black touch up pen to cover (although not pearl black pen). Looks ok without the clearcoat over the top - I tried using a bit but seemed to look worse. Is it worth forking out for the Pearl Black pen, and also does anyone have much experience sanding down? I noticed in Halfords earlier they now sell paint protection systems, but can't believe for £30 it can do much good, anyone had any experience with this at all?
Cheers guys.
