could put a bonnet bra on it, but to be honest id rather have stone chips than drive round with one on. other than this they are pretty unavoidable.

Well, after 2.5k miles, she's still stone chip free. What's 0 x 20? 0! So I will never get any... Blink LOL

was enjoying my recently cleaned Bianca in the sun and noticed a significant increase in the number of stonechips on front bumper but more annoyingly on the bonnet. i can only put this down to my incessant need to slipstream..!

just wondering;

1) instead of painting them in with special touch up paint (Halfords do a 306 Biance White StoneChip touch up Pen) has anyone tried T-cut. heard this works a treat?

2) what wax (besides the wheel wax someone suggested here) do ppl coat their bonnets with to make it stronger and more resistance to stonechips

T-Cut does bugger all when you have a clear coat on top of the paint. It can help reduce the appearance of light scratches but nothing to help chips.

I covered my bonnet in a sealant called "matt black paint". All my stone chips disappeared immediately Yes
