small rock chips

[imported_speedingpenguin]

Having a bit of a problem making the Caddy look good....

its a 97 catera with mostly highway miles...my dad drove the car to NY and back VERY frequently, so its got alot of small rock chips in the paint.....I guess after polishing/waxing the car, the chips filled up with either the wax or the polish or both, so now its a dark green car with a bunch of little white specs in the front....How should I get rid of this? You dont notice the chips if its just black like it normally is, but the white stands out....:nixweiss

I would try some 50/50 of rubbing alcohol/water with a MF towel. If there`s still some stuff in the chips try using qtips. Tedious, I know.



do you plan on filling in the chips or getting some sort of protection like a chip guard or clear bra?

well i`m selling the car ASAP, but it just looks really strange with all the white spots....

It might depend on what products you used, but from my experience, the cleaners in the wax/sealant/AIO/whatever actually removed the dirt and grime that was concealing the chip. What you`re seeing might be primer, in which case a small bottle of touch-up paint with a toothpick will help ya out.
