The chip, dent, and scratch thread!

Yeah, that's one of Nissan's Achilles' heels, so to speak. They just compensate that flaw with great, solid engines, cooling systems, electrical systems, ATs, strong chassis, etc. So, all in all, I'll stick to Nissan (I've owned 6, so far).

Just for starters, the first thing I did after I bough my Z was to buy the following:

• Nissan touch up paint. (already has clear coat in it)
• Clear coat touch up.
• McGuires Scratch X 2.0.
• Shamois towels.
• Microfiber auto cloth towels.
• Easy Grip Sponge applicator for the Scratch X.
• Turtle Wax bug and tar remover.
• A nice silver wash bucket to match my car. (I mean......ya know)

The car wash soap and wax and anything else are to be purchased next, after I make my decision as to what they will be, along with some good quality sponges for washing the Roadster top.

I am interested it that "road wrap" that someone posted to the Forum about, that sounds like just the thing for trips. I am thinking it's a temporary fix, can be removed, then re-applied as needed. I personally do not want the permanent paint protector.
