Chips, Dents, Dings and Scratches.
Here's a tough one, Your guitar has a chip in it from bumping into something. You have a small chip in the finish. If it is a vintage guitar or may become a vintage guitar people usually like to leave these alone because any modification to the finish will decrease the value. I personally don'eally big I leave them alone. Most amateur repairs look much wt mind small chips in my guitars and unless they are rorse than the chip itself.
If its a big chip try to find the piece that fell off, in a club this is hard, but at home you can usually find the piece that chipped off. Here is a easy repair for that. You will need #1500 grit sand paper. Super glue, two wooden tooth picks and some polllhing compound.
First place the chip back into the body and hopefully it will match exactly to where it came out.
Take one drop!!!!!!!! No more on a toothpick and place it in the edge of the crack so the glue runs under and in the chip. Don't use your fingers on this because super glue adheres to skin better than anything, Use the second tooth pickup with no glue on it to hold the chip in place while the glue dries.
After it is dry take a few more drops of glue and cover the chip and the line will disappear. Use the 1500 paper to wet sand the area even. A car finish compound should be used to rub the finish and bring the shine back.
If you don't have the chip and want to touch up the guitar take the guitar to a auto parts store that sells touch up paint for cars. Try to match the color with a car touch up paint. Usually this paint has the clear coating mixed in, if you can't find this than maybe try to match it with nail polish from a department store. They usually don't have metallic though.
