Is there any way to fill up small cracks and tiny chips from dodgy body filler repairs that have gone funny over time?
Garry didn't you use something on small stone chips recently?

I used black polish. Best it would do would turn the white filler a dark grey colour so it wasn't so obvious. It wont fill up the crack.

Yeah, thanks garry thats what I thought.... does anyone know of a product that will fill bigger (but still reletively small) cracks etc? Like some kind of filler or something, that comes in different colours? Hmm..

blade putty is what you want
still need to paint it though
you can use blade putty then use a touch up pen to get away from painting?

Why not go back to the insurer and activate the repair warranty?
