Default Road Rash

So... I just took my car for a very brief drive on the interstate and... I got 4 chips in the hood!

They're very small chips, but the paint is gone. They're fairly hard to spot, but they still bother me.

I was wondering if using Dr. Colorchip is a good idea? It claims to take care of road rash and similar things. My other thought was simply to wait until my car's service is due (in 4 months) and tell the Porsche guys to detail it for me (will that be bloody expensive?).

My main question, though, is, let's suppose I retouch the car myself using Dr. Colorchip or a similar product and I decide it doesn't look good. Can Porsche or any body shop still detail the chips after I did my retouching?

Thanks guys

I don't know about Dr. Colorchip. I just buy paint at the dealer and use a good quality small natural bristle brush - like you use for working on fine models, etc.

You can always have a professional body shop re-do it if you want later.
