Touch Up Paint or What?

What is everyone using to fill in those annoying little nicks that we aquire over time from traveling these brutal roads? While washing my G over the weekend I have noticed a few little nicks on the front bumber from rocks or pebbles hitting it while driving on the Highways..

What is everyone using to clean these up? Touch Up Paint or has anyone tried those magical products they show on TV to touchup scratches etc.??


Thanks!

Use touch up paint. Check out the following web site for a good article on how to do it properly so that you can't really tell you touched it up.

You will need finer sandpaper than that. Get a sheet of 1500 and 2000 grit as well if you can't find the blocks. I would personally stay away from anything less than 1500 grit, but I like to go slow when it comes to sanding.
