Hi All,
I was washing my car and noticed a few rusted spots on my paint. I know these can be very costly if i let them be and it spreads. Wondering what my options are -
1) I tried to locate OEM paint repair pen for my model and only found Chipex products. I will call the local lexus dealership see if they can locate/sell me one.
2) Chip repair service ( Car Doctor or Chips Away)
3) Detailer who may possibly do this as part of their service
4 Body shop (I assume will be the most expensive out of the list)
I want to know what would be the best option. I don't want to spend an arm and a leg but at the same time I don't want a really bad job done (risk of it if i DIY it?)
How difficult is this?
Ideally I want to protect from further damage first. I had good advice from reddit where the person advised me to just clear the rust, use OEM pain corrector first to protect and can sand it down later on. Which makes sense since I have lack of experience.
Appreciate any help,
Thanks,
J
