well in that case...a chip that size is going to be a biznatch...i would sand about 1" around the area of the chip and and mask it off...the clear the hell out of it...

I've had 0 luck trying to blend clearcoat. I've painted/dont body work on quite a few cars, and for me at least, trying to feather out and blend clearcoat is damn near impossible.

Yeah, but your advice about an inch around it would most likely lead to him having to strip the whole hood down and reclear it IMHO.
