    Chip in paint on KATA eyeglass frames
    I have a pair of KATA eyeglass frames with a very small spot where the paint is chipped. I paid over $300 for the frames so I want to keep them. My lenses are very expensive anyway. I have a very strong perscription and need to get special lenses/frames so my glasses don't look too thick. I also want modern looking glasses (I am in my 20s) so I love the KATA styles. They are made of titanium. If I use a tiny bit of gold nail polish, will this cover the paint chip? I am concerned that if I correct it with nail polish, the piece of polish may come off, making the spot worse. If I do use nail polish, how should I apply it? I don't want it to look too thick. The glasses are a gold color. I have seen how the dry polish looks and I think it is almost identical in color to the frames. I took the glasses to the store where I originally purchased them; they said there was nothing they could do. Will nail polish stick to and look halfway decent on titanium frames? Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

    I would suggest taking the frames where you purchased them and asking them about a warranty... all frames have a warranty.

    I'll have to ask them about it. All I asked them before was if they could fix the chip. I've had them a while, but maybe they are still under warranty. In most cases, do I need to have the actual warranty paper? I probably had something like that originally, but I've moved several times and I'm sure I don't anymore. I'll have to check it out. The only thing that sucks is that the store I bought them at is 4 hrs. away, and it isn't part of a chain, so there aren't any around here. I'll have to take it up there when I go visit at Christmas. Thanks again for your answer. I can't believe I never thought to ask them! :)

    Nope, they won't give you a warranty paper... it's just in the paperwork that the place you bought it from has.
