Update: After a week of trying everything under the sun including touch up paint, those clear coat pens -- by the way .. those suck, and very fine sanding, I finally repaired the damage. I used a very fine polishing compound. After lots and lots of rubbing, the color was getting brighter and brighter and the area was as smooth as the surrounding paint. Then I used Nu Finish. I rubbed it in and wiped it off around 3 times. That did the trick. The paint surrounding the original chip is back to normal. Now I am back to square one. Ready to touch up the chip.
