AR-Fiesta Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 this morning i kerbed one of my white alloys which im really annoyed about, its not that bad but it still annoys me and i can notice it lol, its not worth taking it in to pay for it to get fixed, its not that big so can anyone think of a product or something i can buy to make it look not as bad, my friend seems to think you can get a pen thing for white alloys and you basically paint the scathes off anyone help ?

Marcr1 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Tipex ;) aha. I'd be in exactly the same boat if it happened to me *touch wood* I've not seen sticks for wheels before. I know turtle wax doing a similar product for paint. You get a chip stick and a liquid that colours the chip the same colour as the car, this may work?

DaveD Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Fear not my friend. I repaired my sons expensive alloy wheels on his MINI Cooper with this Planet Polish Alloy repair. Just rub the scratch smooth with the sandpaper, mix the filler, sand again till smooth then paint but you are going to have to spray yours white though. This stuff really works. He couldant see the repair! Heres a link for you. Delivery is swift and a great product. http://www.planetpolish.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambooka Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 What about just touch up paint and sealer that's what I'm doing to cover the chip in my white alloys I cried a bit when I found it there only 2 weeks old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I kerb more alloys than anything; usually avoiding cats >_> All you need is the paint code really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AR-Fiesta Posted September 7, 2012 Author Share Posted September 7, 2012 i put some white chip and scratch on it this morning and it actually looks really good, the only problem do you think the paint will come off when im washing my car/alloys ?

Shakey88 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Exactly the same happened to me today mate! Only had the car about 2 weeks, sick! Which chip and scratch did you use? Has anyone tried the touch up pens from Halfords etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcr1 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Sod's law I've got a little mark on my alloy :( grr. I've been looking and do you think a Frozen white ford touch up kit would match the alloys? Or does anyone know of anything better? http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductMobileDisplay?catalogId=10151&storeId=10001&productId=767283&categoryId=165580&langId=-1 Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 If you buy that Halfords touch up kit it comes with the paint, lacquer and dressing tools to clean up the damaged paint. Don't see why it shouldn't do what it purports to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcr1 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I'm just thinking the colour match really - but any white would look better I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 If you check the Halfords website listing it shows the Ford colour codes it matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
