Default touch up paint.

I need someone local to help me touch up my car. I've got a bunch of small paint chips and scratches that need attention. Honestly, I have no idea what I'm doing, so I was wondering if one of you guys that know how to repair paint chips/scratches wouldn't mind giving me a hand. I just want someone to show me how on a couple of them, and then I would do the rest. I've been reading the wax and wash forum, but I am afraid that I will make a bigger mess than what I have now.

I would help you Andy if you like. I have done a few but would like to read up just to refresh and see what you are thinking/expecting. Would you mind driving to Madison and do it one evening in my garage?


We can rewash the front end before working on it and I have compressed air to dry things up too.

Bryan, thanks. I don't mind driving to Madison at all. I've got several rock chips on the front and the kids have scratched it in a few places. Then I added some more the other day. I'll find some links to show you what i've been reading.

There is some talk about Zaino in these threads. I have heard about it, and if it will help I'll get some. A clay bar or whatever it is...

I need to wax my car something horrible, and I want to clay bar it too. I wish we had somewhere big enough to do another mod day! (HINT HINT Bryan. )
