I washed my car today for the second time, and have now discovered quite a bit of road rash on the driver's side rear door and quarter panel, before getting to the back tire. These particular chips are fairly small, and I can't feel them at all, but they're definitely larger in girth than a scratch, and definitely noticeable.
Grrr! I can only suspect that the dealership used a colored wax on the car, and as I'm washing it out I'm seeing more and more flaws.
I haven't had any returned calls from higher end body shops about the scratches I mentioned before, and I can't drive 2-3 hours away to track down a paint specialist that won't return my call, so I'm about to take matters in to my own hands.
Any suggestions on how I might fix these myself? I looked at the Dr. Colorchip Road Rash Repair Kit, which has good reviews, but since the Karma paint isn't just one solid color then I don't know how seamless it will really be.
I assume that this isn't something that can be buffed out, since the chips are larger in girth than a small scratch?
