I’ve heard some people use fingernail polish, depending on the size of the chip. If that’s a possibility, I recommend going to your local dollar store. Then if necessary, you can get a few colors and mix it just right. That Viper Red is so pretty!

Sally Hansen Color Therapy nail polish, red-iance color. Works well.

has anyone found a possible match at all for Trek Rage Red? it's a deeper red with a metallic finish. Trek had no suggestions when I called them other than sending the bike to Wisconsin for a refinish!
