Some little bar steward decided to throw an egg at the roof of my car last night. He threw it so hard that it took the paint off the car where it hit, it actually loks like a stone mark but no dent.
Does anyone have a touch up paint to match my car, I think it is 262 or 292 silver. Any help would be appreciated. And if you go past Wetherspoons in Kirkcaldy.....beware.

Are u sure it took the paint off Alan?

You tried a paint treatment or t-cut. Might have just taken some dirt off!!

Defo the paint, won't t-cut cos its totally chipped. Wouldn't believe it if someone told me but it's happened. It's like a swirl mark with a large scrape through it. I'm going to phone Guiness book of records......most damage from 1 egg!!!!

It had happened to my Lada 3 yrs ago, it was brand new, metallic silver. Paint goes off, underlay stays. Used nail polish, holds well but color may be very slightly wrong, you could only tell it if looked very very thorough. Nail polishes dont have numeric codes, you know

BTW I need a touch pen too, but have no idea where to get one, and what color number is. It's some blue, but not the dark one. And advice?

Good luck,
Sergey
