Race Blue RS Paint chip

Featured Replies

Hi all

Any advice much appreciated. 2 week old RS and I some how got two decent paint chips on the bonnet.

I Heard skoda have their own paint touch up kits. Anyone know how I can get these in Australia?

The car is race blue 2014(MY15)

Your local dealer should be able to supply or if not you could try:

There is an Aussie flag on their webpage so there is probably a dealer!

 

If it's a deep chip try a local web search for Paint chip repairers or Mr Chips or some such entry, you may find that you get a near perfect repair that will not be noticeable at a reasonable cost, if you DIY and it looks naff, it will always look naff and remind you that you should have had it done properly in the first place!

 

Anyway hope you get it sorted to your satisfaction.

I do 500 miles per week and the front end is peppered with stone chips, the race blue is the worst colour I've had for a while for chipping. Best to just accept that its inevitable and not waste your money repairing every time you get a chip. If it gets really bad, you can get it resprayed before you sell it on, but I think most dealers expect a reasonable amount of chips on the front end.

I bought some factory touch up paint but will wait a while as I drive a lot I dont see the point of repairing every week!
