How do you repair pit marks in the paint of my car hood?

I have a 2004 Monte Carlo. It has a low front end and it seems to catch all these small rocks with its' hood. The rest of the car is in excellent condition. Am I going to have to paint the entire hood? Will spot painting work? In addition to leaving a small scar, they seem to leave a little rough spot.

    Don't you just hate that! Our car guy said nail polish is good to keep it from chipping even more. I don't know if that's good advice or not...but there you have it. lol

    Buy some touch-up paint from the manufacturer. Usually standard colours (if your car is factory colour.

    Hard to make repair look invisible but will look better.

    They come in small pots with brush (like nail varnish).

    Kenny's suitable, you will possibly desire to color to repair. yet... in case you elect for a rapid restoration, flow to a dealership and purchase a bottle of matching touch-up paint. it is possibly under $10, and could seem slightly extra suitable. no longer great, yet slightly extra suitable.
