I used to keep a stash of Yarisworld flyers in my glovebox and put them under the wipers of any Yarii spotted in mall parking lots. They're easier to capture when sleeping (parked).

Summer sneakers on. Winter paint chips touched-up (round 1).
Still need to remover the winter mats and thoroughly clean the carpets and the install the summer mats. A fresh coat of ICE is in order too. Hopefully next weekend if the weather co-operates.

I had one back away back. Sometimes I wouldn't mind taking one for a spin but no real desire to own another. It's treacherous out there with all those inattentive steering wheel holders (can't call them drivers).

Toyota paint pen. A sharpy of sorts but the tip moves in/out to pump out the paint. One end pumps my BLUE, the other end pumps CLEAR.
I'm certainly no artist and regret the first go-around.

I'm working on a technique to make it work. Too much paint ends up outside the chip so I whip if off. Several applications doing this seems to be my immediate solution.

I've found that some 1000 grit wet works to smooth out the paint blob. Then 3000 wet, then polish. I don't bother with the clear.
