ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    paint chip

    I'm looking at my car today and I notice a nasty paint chip situation that I got goin on on the rear of my car. It's starting to rust a little bit and looks like shit. Any advice on what I can do to temporarily fix this and keep it from rusting any more? I'm not looking to re-paint the car right now as that's on the bottom of the list of things to do right now. Just trying to contain the problem and make it look slightly better. Any info would help

    the best thing to do would be sand the rust away, and just use touchup paint and cover the exposed metal. Other thing is have a shop do it.

      Goal is low budget so I want to fix it myself. Any ideas where I could get a matching touchup paint for my car?

        First you need your paint code (in the door jamb) then you can have Almost any body shop mix the paint for you, or even get a touchup pen from any auto parts store. I would go to a shop, because they have paint swatches, that will match the car's paint (because of fading from sun)

            yep, as mentioned earlier just sand off the rusted spot and apply some rust treatment stuff (ie rustoleum sp??) and then paint match. your honda dealer should have the touch up paint or autozone (if your lucky and they carry them)
