Mithridates Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I've managed to get a couple very small chips in the gloss black paint on my Anovos Deathtrooper helmet and was wondering if anyone had suggestions as to a brand and type of paint I might use to touch them up. They are small enough that a bit of paint carefully applied via brush should make them disappear. I'm grateful for any advice you can offer. Thanks! Link to comment
lancer[TX] Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Do you have pictures? Unless you're positive it's a chip I would recommend trying to buff it out first. I had some scuffs on the forehead of my bucket that I thought were chips as well that I was able to get out with my DA polisher and some compound. Link to comment
Mithridates Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 I'm sure it is a chip, sadly. I've tried some Testors gloss black to see if that does the trick! Link to comment
ukswrath[TX] Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 For small areas I use a sharpie Link to comment
Mithridates Posted January 7, 2018 Author Share Posted January 7, 2018 Testors gloss black did the trick! Thanks for the responses! Link to comment
ukswrath[TX] Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Yea kinda hard to screw up black, unless you went with flat or something lol 1 Link to comment
Chaos[CMD-DCA] Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 If the spot still shows due to the unevenness of the paint repair you can always wet sand with 1000 - 2000 grit and then use something like Meguiar's Ultimate Polish to even out the finish. Link to comment
Mithridates Posted January 8, 2018 Author Share Posted January 8, 2018 Will do! The unevenness did bug me a bit Link to comment
