Chip on Roof?
 
Afternoon all,

motivated by the sunny weather (here in London) and fitting the new plates to the car, today i gave the CSL a good clean. In doing so i noticed the smallest of small chips on the roof. Probably a maximum of 1mm across.

Before it leads to bigger issues, what do i need to do to it? A touch of clear laquer?

Thanks

I'd get something done sooner rather than later, maybe like you say some lacquer or clear nail varnish maybe?

I had a 1mm chip which can be seen in this pic:

It ended up like this after some water got under the lacquer. :bigcry:

£1500 later:bigcry:and it has a new roof :thumbs:

That's my worry!

Will see if the Missus has some clear nail varnish, alternatively it'll be down to Halfrauds for some clear laquer tomorrow.

Can't the chip just be filled and then re-laquered - presumably if the carbon isn't damaged, this should be easy enough?
