To repair chipped paint on your car buy a bottle of car pain that matches your cars color as close as possible. First you need to clean the area with a mix of car detergent and water. Remove any loose paint and dust that may be left after it dries with a fiberglass pencil. The apply light layers of paint over the clean area. Allow paint to dry for several hours before applying another layer and 24 hours for the drying the final coat to dry. Generally, you'll need 3 to 4 coats. Sand the raised paint with a sanding block covered with 1500 grit sandpaper, then when it's almost the same level as the other paint, switch to 2000 grit sand paper for a few more gentle swipes. Then buff with a rubbing compound and soft rag. Finally wax or polish the car to protect your new paint.
