After a small altercation with a cement planter, the car was repainted with a thicker clear coat. After another 13,000 miles of the same hiways, there isn't a single chip in the front end.
Moral of the story: use more clear coat when you paint these mothers in the first place!

After reading this entire thread, sounds like applying a heavier clear coat is the way to go. Thanks |
