When my wife and I are shopping, and she veers into a cosmetics shop, I always peruse the nail polish section for good matches for cars, bikes, helmets, etc. I ask my wife to buy one if I need it. Not too long ago, I had her buy a particular shade of green that was a good match for a chip in a helmet. She ends up wearing the colors, since they tend to be on the funky side. It's amazing how many colors are available in nail polishes.
Maybe the Forum could use more education regarding available colours of nail polishes?
Education iz good, right?

Try as I might, I couldn't make a divit caused by seat staple disappear. The color from the pen turned out slighty darker, and I couldn't make it match the surface as well as I had hoped. But the area is covered by the seat edge so it's unseen. I was curious to just how well one can make a paint chip go away--in my case, not very well.
The dealership gave me the paint stick at no cost when I showed them how the staple had backed out causing the scratch down to bare metal. But if I ever do get a paint chip that's visible, I'll just dab it with a bit of paint to protect from rust and not worry about appearance.
