Alpine White and stonechips
Why oh why is it that when I had a black car stonechips showed white and now I have a white car the stonechips show black? Is someone taking the piss?

I have a white Toyota Tacoma pick-up truck and I've found with stone chips.....if you get the factory touch-up paint, the rock chips disappear, even if you are sloppy. On my silver M3, the chips are still visible.

I touch them in with AW touch up and a cocktail stick. The brush is way too big. You're right though, on white they tend to be invisible to the naked eye.

Use a toothpick that has been broken in half and/or the ass end of a match out of a matchbook....clear bra's suck. How do you touch up the dings in the clear bra? thought so.

Hmm, good tip, Ive been using the pointy end. I've seen paint protection film (bra) yellow after a few months - not good on a white car!
