Ugh... Almost six months old and a crap load of chips on front fascia, and hood. Vibe sure has a quality paint job. What's the best touch up tecnique with least visibility of repair, and minimal blotching? Has anyone tried langka? How does it work?Thanks,Chris

Hehehe! Welcome to the $hatty paint by GM club!There's NOTHING you can do about it. I've even had small INSECTS chip my front end! Now I'm noticing chips on the back edge of all the doors!I hope my tax return is big. New paint is on the way. (knock wood!)

I do not have an excessive amount of chips and the paint hold up seems normal to me verses other cars I have or had. I use a normal bottle of touch up, touch them up immediately and rub them down if needed...

I've had my 2000 Dodge Stratus for almost 6 years. I've had my Vibe for less than 6 months. The damn Vibe has more chips.
