fixing paint chips

Smac355 · 04-05-2009, 02:07 PM

Heys guys, so my dad asked me if i could try and fix the paint on his 7series which has a bunch of hail damage from last year. The dealer quoted him 2k on fixing it, guessing there game plan was to repaint everything. Mos of the damage and small paint chips on the hood etc. im sure you've seen them before. I've read through the detailing handguide, to get an idea of how to properly detail a car(since i've never really done it b4). Just wanted some advice/guidance on how i should go about doing this. I'm thinking about trying to polish them out first, but since u can feel them with ur nail im pretty positive they aren't going anywhere. Anyway any help is truly appreciated!! Thanks!
