Protecting carbon bike frame after a small chip? My bike frame is carbon and it recently got a small chip. It's about the size of a pinky fingernail in size. Should I do anything to treat the chip to help prevent it from getting worse?



Here's a photo of the chip, hopefully this helps narrow things down.
The effects of the chip depend a bit on "how much" was chipped away. Generally it is always better to seal the chip. I have seen water getting under the protective paint/carbon layer and the area slowly expanding. 

If the chip is small I've heard people using nailpolish with good success. For anything a bit bigger, I would probably bring it into a carbon repair place and have them check that the carbon is still structurally sound. They can also repair the chip more professionally.
