What is stone chip repair?
Small chips on the bonnet and front panels filled and sealed before rust starts.
Gravel roads and highway driving leave small chips on the front of the car. Each chip is cleaned, treated if rust has started, and carefully filled with matched paint, then levelled so it is far less visible.
