Chip in paint

I have a chip in my car from a small rock on the freeway. It’s not that deep, but I see black. Am I looking at primer, or…..?

TIA

I was really impressed by Dr. Colorchip. You would never know that this car had any chips in it other than the tiny marks on the windshield.

Thank you…. I’m leaning towards the Dr. Chips Away was an excellent fix, but they don’t seem to be around any longer

My bad…Didn’t use a period after “Dr” I meant, Chips Away isn’t around that I could find. I remember when they first hit the scene. Everybody was all over them and the results were incredible. You had to pay someone to come out and do it, but they were the best. So many guys bought franchises that I think they knocked themselves out of business. Chips Away seems to be around in the UK though.

Well, my Vette was purchased last Sept., 6,600 miles. Not a chip or scratch inside or out. Trying to keep her looking as good as the day I picked her up as long as I can
