Hi,

The front cowl on my 140 has a few things i'd like to fix. I know the best thing would be a full sanding, satin and repaint, but i'd like a simpler option, even if it doesn't look as good. The two things i'd like to tackle are the cracks in the paint (like above the inlet on the left) and the paint chips (below the inlet on the right).

For the paint chips, I guess I could get a touch up pen made for that paint color, then polish?

For the cracks in the paint, is there something to do?

Thanks for your input
