does anyone know of any good ways of getting stone chips to go....

i have a tin of the exact paint that was used on my car....so i was thinking maybe a small blob of paint into the small chip and polish it in with a porter cable and some defect correction products....

Any ideas people

apply the paint to the stonechip with a coctail stick, wait for it to dry, then use a product called blob eliminator.
