  • My paint chip is getting bigger :(

    Now i need a little help guys. attachted is a picture of my car and as you can see there is a paint chip and you can see the fiberglass. Well since then i have gone thru some car washes and it's gotten HELLA big. Does anyone on here do a "GOOD PAINT JOB' I don't want to repaint the WHOLE fender but just patch up that one spot. I'm afraid to do it and look nasty. maybe i'll just go over messians house and he'll paint it red for me ha ha. let me know guys.....i need to fix this before it gets any bigger!

          If you have access to a air compressor and a blow gun, you could probably blow all of that paint right off of that fender. My Dad, who is a painter, says that that is from poor adhesion, and the whole fender will need to be stripped and repainted. I know that's not what you wanted to hear, but it is probably what you will end up having to do.

                I know of a paint shop around here, they don't paint cars, but they have really cool computers that precisely match the paint color on your car so you don't have to blend to other body panels. I am going to have them match the paint on my car, and I think you should find a place that will do the same for you. That way you won't have to blend the hood and door to the fender when you get around to having it painted. If you go with a shop, they will charge you extra for that.

                      Yeah that would be nice. Last time my gf dad went to a automatic car wash they ripped the spoiler off his corvette! Ouch! They didn't pay him a dime for it. There is a disclaimer on the building in size 2 font that says they are not to be held liable for damages. Ass Clowns!

                        that is why I never go to automatic car washes.

                        My dad does own a self serve car wash, so that doesn't hurt either being able to get free washes, lol

                            I know. Last time i went to this three dollar car wash (big mistake) and they guys with the towls didn't even dry the last half of the car. I was ssooo pissed. Then the beads froze cuz it was so cold out. Tear. We don't have a "do it yourself one around here" and it's been way to cold lateley for me to wash it. but my car looks so pretty washed!!!
