Deep chip in finish, what paintable putty?
Just got back from a drive, received a deep chip in the finish. Looks too deep to just detail paint it, I need something to fill the hole and then paint. What to use?

A woman would use nail polish.

They do make a spot body filler... It's not a 2 part filler...and it's much softer than bondo... Sands easier too ..usually called glazing and spot filler. Need to stay thin as it will crack as it cures if it's thick.

A pic might help, but build it up with touch up paint and clearcoat.
