How to Repair Car Bumper Damage with Touch Up Paint

The trouble with bumper paint is that it’s the areas of your car that is most likely to feel the burden of paintwork damage. There’s also a high probability that immediately after you’ve put the work in, it’ll be scuffed or chipped again. However, taking pride in your car’s appearance means making sure that every area of the paintwork is looking its best, including the bumper. Keeping on top of bumper paint repair can be an ongoing battle, but the effort is definitely worth it.

If there’s a specific area of your car that likely needs to be repainted or touched up, it’s the bumper. Here are the reasons why:

Follow our step by step guide on how to use Chipex^® touch up paint on car bumpers.

1. Clean the paint stone chips and surrounding area thoroughly. Make sure you remove any sealant, wax or polish from the chipped area.
2. Put on the gloves that are provided with the kit.
3. Shake the paint bottle well and then used the supplied Chipex^® paint applicator brush to dab the paint onto the chipped areas. If your car has lots of small paint stone chips in one area (road rash) then put the paint onto a gloved fingertip and smear it evenly across.
4. Once the paint is touch dry, which could take between 40 seconds and 5 minutes depending on the temperature and amount of paint applied, apply the blending solution to the paper cloth and wipe across the painted area.
5. Lastly, take the finishing polish and apply a small amount to a soft microfibre cloth and gently rub across the painted areas. Allow this to dry and haze, then remove the haze with a clean part of the cloth.
