I have a chip in my paint that has continued to peel. The spot is getting larger, about the size of a baseball. I don't care to repaint the car, as it is an older car, but is there some kind of sealant that I can use to keep the paint from continuing to peel?

If you don't care about looks, hit the edges with some sand paper until it stops flaking off and then cover the area in some 2k clear coat

If it's down to bare metal, you really need to cover that with some type of paint first. You can buy aerosol cans of factory "matched" paint online pretty inexpensively

I bought a TouchUpDirect spray paint kit from Amazon for my Ruby Red Metallic F150, and the paint was an exact match.

My blending skills (first time, youtube trained) left a lot to be desired, but it looks a lot better.

Solid 10-footer, and it had big flaking chunks of aluminum corrosion on the hood prior to the repair.

Taped it off
Sanded to bare metal
Primer (3 x coats)
Dry overnight
Sand smooth
3 coats color
3 coats clear
Dry overnight
Wet sand
Polish

the cheap ghetto way would be some clear nail polish

Thanks for the replies. It is down to bare metal, so I think I'll try painting. The TouchUpDirect website makes it look fairly simple. I'm sure mine won't turn out as good, but it will look better than what it looks like now.
