Chips Away?

[Gravity]

Hello all

I treated Dangermouse to a spa yesterday and she looks absolutely great. Unfortunately having had her cleaned to such a degree has uncovered numerous little stone chips on the paintwork that are making me sad.

Has anyone used Chips Away on their MINI before? Can they fix Dangermouse's BEP paint nicely?

Thanks
Gemma

I haven't had any chips repaired on my bonnet but i got my alloy wheel repaired by chips away and did a good job at £60

Used Chips away in Cheshire area on my wheels, he did an excellent job.

Hi Scott,
It's a chip - got hit by a flying piece of metal from a bin lorry in Darlington the other day but no witnesses. Got the lorry details and I get the impression they won't dispute it as long as the price is not too high. Problem is it's right on the top of the bonnet so noticeable.

I've used a body shop in Darlington before who are quite good. So if I can't get a recommendation I will probably use them.
Thanks, Sharon

Thats a fair deal if they are willing to pay for it...

Good luck

Well I called Chips away today about some stone chips in my bonnet and they told me exactly that.... Stay away !!!!

He said I'd probably do a better job myself !!!

What a waste of time, looks like I'll be attempting a touch up job this weekend
