Default :( chip repairer in Reading or BHAM area?

Despite me firmly tying down my bike to my bike rack this afternoon, I've somehow caused some paint damage to my boot (not spotted until bike removed but presumably my eggbeater pedal) Its much smaller than last time. The damage is predominately just the thin lacquer coat, but there is a small patch of paint tapped away to the primer. I'm in Reading from Wednesday to Friday and I thought I could get it sorted whilst I was stuck in the hotel during the day. Can anyone recommend a good chip removing company in that area?

Can't help you with a repairer Craig, but I'll be around Reading later in the week if you fancy a beer?

any of you good with a touch up pen? There are quite a few of us at the hotel and no doubt we'll be eating together on the Thursday night about 8. However, I could probably find you guys after the meal? I can't remember the hotel name, but will check tomorrow.

looking up Chipsaway's number at the moment...

Craig you might also want to check out Body Technics in Slough, they are supposed to have a good reputation but I'm sure others can add their comments.

Well if you aren't at the Albert Hall who else will serve the peanuts at the concession stand?
