January 20, 201115 yr #2 I think it's around $20 a bottle from Ford. I got some for stonechips, couldn't get it to look any good so just had the bar resprayed.
January 20, 201115 yr #3 any decent panel shop will do it, some will do it for nothing some will make you pay. To get it to look right theres a few tricks you gotta do, not just blob it on lol

January 21, 201115 yr #5 a few tricks if the colour is a good match its best to detail the whole area etc after your done, make sure the touch up paint it level with the surrounding paint level etc etc.
March 6, 201115 yr #6 Thanks for the tips fordfreak1 I have a couple of chips on mine but very small. The previous owner has really done a terriffic job on the 4 or 5 small chips that are evident so I want to keep on top of them.
March 8, 201115 yr #7 $20 a bottle! What a rip! A steady hand and not very much paint on the brush are the best way. Smaller chips use a folded up piece of paper to apply the paint.
