Subject: clear coat chip

So I managed to chip some of the clear coat off of my Trek Madone 5.2.  I imagine it occurred while I was putting it on and/or taking it off the trainer.  The carbon appears fine,The chips have to be pretty new because I clean my bike usually bi weekly and would have noticed them.

What can be done to patch it up?  Some internet search said to use nail polish clear coat.  Any other recommendations?

Can't really tell what's going on in the pic, but you can use clear nail polish to touch up small chips in clear coat.

It's just two small chips on the rear wheel near the quick release lever.  Thanks that's what I'll do.
