i would be inclined to use the little lacquer touch up stick that you get with the DS rather than the nail varnish cos its made to withstand acids & cleaners etc.

If you didn't do anything, then over time you might get water under the paint or original lacquer of the wheel & it wil lead to milky white spots around the chips & will blister further around the wheel.

for £810 im not going to leave it as it is!!!

yeah i will do what you said, DS touch up stick and the lacquer that comes with it. Do it as soon as possible!!

Thanks for your advice
