Just spent 3 hours cleaning the car and decided to touch up some chips

I knew I shouldn't have tried it but though hey why not I will give it a go and look what has happened :dapprove:

Mess no. 1

Mess No. 2

Mess No. 3

Mess No. 4

:banghead: not good at all

does anyone know if I can fix this or is it totally fecked now :dapprove:

172 Dave · Jun 17, 2006

pretty fecked looks like a dalmation, if its still very fresh get some thinners or turps and take the touch up off and get a pro in to do them Maz

172 Dave · Jun 17, 2006

nice shades tho

Get some T cut paint reastorer on it remove the paint and then paint over it again doing a proper job

LOL

Maz · Jun 17, 2006

I don't want to touch it I am scared I will make it worse

is turps like paint stripper ??

Nick_R182 · Jun 17, 2006

Yeah try and get it off now whilst its still soft. Chipsaway are probably your best bet!

Jonaldinho · Jun 17, 2006

Ouch, get to a pro sharpish.

172 Dave · Jun 17, 2006

turps or meths wont touch the genuine paint - promise!

dutty_112 · Jun 17, 2006

Ibanezman · Jun 17, 2006

Arghh get it off quick ! :dapprove:

Gutted for you, i have a number somewhere for a guy that used to work for chipsaway and did my last car, think he works for himself now doing mobile repairs (similar to chipsaway) from memory he only lived in appleton.

***searching through paperwork now for you***

Very funny

thanks for the support !!

Justin_16vT · Jun 17, 2006

no worries , thats what club members are for

Maz · Jun 17, 2006

^^ what taking the p1ss out of people who are asking for help and support *sighs*

Lam7r · Jun 17, 2006

hmmmm cant find his number anymore maz...gutted as i need some chips sorting in my bumper too (wont be asking you to do em tho thats for sure :rasp: )

If you phone chipsaway tho they will give you a number for a local guy, if you get a decent job done then send us the number please

Good luck

ben_p · Jun 17, 2006

wheres that stick from?

Munson · Jun 17, 2006

Maz that doesnt look toooo bad as a temporary fix, girl. I think a chipsaway firm would probably have cost a fair bit to repair those bad boys. I wonder how much a pro respray would cost as a longer term fix? Maybe £300 tops?

Justin_16vT · Jun 17, 2006

its only paint

Ali · Jun 17, 2006

Wet and dry sand paper, then PC polish....

In other words, leave it to the pro's

Justin_16vT · Jun 17, 2006

did you use a 4'' decorators brush ?

Cheers for that Lam7r but I have managed to get most of it off with "Megs clear coat body scrub paint cleaner" phewwwwwwwwww

Adtmits is going to give it the once over with the PC later to make sure its all off :approve:

I now have sore fingers as I have never rubbed so hard in my life :rasp: fpmsl

PS - A warning about Chips Away Local Warrington Tec Richard.. don't use !! he is rubbish . .Adtmits uses the Manchester Tec he is much better and he fixed the job that Richard fecked up for me in the first place

*note to myself* never ever ever do that again !! :clown:

Will you go away if you have nothing constructive or helpful to say

ChrisE · Jun 17, 2006

Munson · Jun 17, 2006

I think Maz just tried the best with what she had. Obviously she isnt too happy with the results, hence this thread. No need to take the piss
