STONE CHIPS....!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just finished washing/waxing the car and have noticed a stone chip that looks like it starting to rust. Is there anything that I can do without repainting as its the only stone chip on this particular panel.

Tip for you. When touching-up stone chips use a wooden toothpick to apply the paint from the touch-up pen/stick. Much more control and you apply a little at a time to build up the layers letting each one dry before applying the next.

I am not surprised the paint has chipped Subaru paint is made from recycled dried horse droppings, its as brittle as 0.1mm thick glass. Hit a common house fly in the summer at 32 mph and you'll have a paintchip the size of the Hole of Horcum on your bonnet.
Trade it in for an Audi and realise the mistake you made.
Kind Regards,

Cheers for the info guys. Not sure if its rust or just discoloured. Will touch it up ASAP. Its more annoying as I try my best to avoid Stone Chips. Bluto22b - my next car will probably be German but of the M3 variety.
