Chip in clearcoat

[Daniel Hussey <GY3WSX%UNIVSCVM.BITNET@VTBIT.CC.VT.EDU>]

    Hey fellow quattroers,

           I have a small chip in my clearcoat on the right rear quarter panel
near the trunklid, and is just in the clearcoat, the paint is fine.  This chip
happened when I was cleaning my car with one of those high pressure spray
hoses.  I accidentally got the nozzle too close to my paint for too long and
before I knew it, there was some clearcoat that had flaked away.

           I know one spot on the car has been touched up before (trunk lid),
when the previous owners wife left it in neutral, and the car rolled back into
some bushes overnight.  I was wondering if anybody knew of any easy way to
touch this up.  I don't know how the previous owner did this.

          I called the dealership for to see if they had a canister of touch
up paint, but when I gave them my paint code number, they said they didn't have
it.  My paint is the optional pearl white paint, and I don't think they make
touch up paint for it.  I tried several paint touch-up specialty places, but
they were afraid to touch any peal white car, even though all they had to do
was respray the clearcoat in that area.  It doesn't seem like it would be all
that hard, but no one seems to do this work.

         The chip is rather small and unoticable, but I want to touch it up, so
that it is sealed up and the chip cannot get bigger, which it eventually will.
It doesn't have to look great, since the car has already been touched up once,
and they didn't do a great job at it, but it is pretty unnoticable.

         If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.  I have
seen a badly flacking clearcoat on a 90CS quattro...was this a problem with
Audis paint process?  TIA.
                                           Later,
                                            Dan
