Minor stone chips and scratches Material: Primer - can Paint - touch-up pen Brush Masking tape If the stone chip has not gone down to the bare metal and an undamaged color coat remains, you can add paint immediately after removing dirt. NOTE When touching up the vehicle, it should be clean and dry. The surface temperature should be above 60° F (15° C). Minor scratches on the surface If the stone chip has not penetrated down to the metal and an undamaged layer of paint remains, the touch-up paint can be applied as soon as the spot has been cleaned. Repairing stone chips 1. Place a strip of masking tape over the damaged surface. Pull the tape off so that any loose flakes of paint adhere to it. 2. Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it with a small brush. 3. When the primer surface is dry, the paint can be applied using a brush. Mix the paint thoroughly; apply several thin paint coats and let dry after each application. 4. If there is a longer scratch, you may want to protect surrounding paint by masking it off 5. After a few days, polish the touched-up areas. Use a soft rag and a small amount of polish. 270 06 Maintenance and specifications Label information Location of labels
