    Chips on my calais

    Holden Holden Advice Holden Calais Holden Calais Advice Holden Calais 1995
    I HAVE bought a 1995 Holden VS Calais and the paint is being chipped off the bonnet and other areas. The car is dark green, which makes the chips stand out. I'm becoming paranoid about it and I am really against car-bras. Is there any other way to protect the paintwork? Other than a few chips here and there, the paint is immaculate.

    IT SOUNDS as if the chips are caused by stones and other debris thrown up by other cars. There's nothing much you can do to protect it, other than use a car-bra. If you don't want to do that, I would touch up the chips so they're not so obvious, and keep your car waxed and polished so the stones and other things tend to slip off the surface.
