Bristol Steve Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Hi guys, I have a metallic black 2007 but with stone chips, (motorway miles) bird strike and scratches, do you think by getting it mopped would be a good ideal, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modd1uk Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Mopped ? No. You will probably need bits painting depending how bad the stone chips are. And its called paint correction not mopping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Steve Posted July 27, 2013 Author Share Posted July 27, 2013 Well thanks for that, I thought it was called Mopping, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakley350z Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Mopping/ compounding will help, will freshen up the paintwork and not make it look as tired.. As blacks usually do.. Will help get rid of small scratches and any marring present from cleaning etc. If your willing to part with the cash then it would be better to get all the chips etc done. But if your just looking to make it look abit tidier then a mop over the car and a black felt tip for the stonechips will do the trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

350 Russ Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 based in Bristol, won't mopping my Zed,affect the laquer? I know that the paint is thin on nissan's as long as you dont strike through the laquer it will be fine, will make it a bit thinner but thats all. if your doing it yourself then be careful as its really soft and will leave holograms really easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
