    I got paint chip now everytime I play my head hurt so much like I feel not perfect anymore. Every time I serve the shuttle instead of focusing my opponent I look at the chip instead, I try not to look at the chip, but somehow I just ended looking the chip. My head is getting confused I think I going to die this feeling errr !! hard to describe. Any idea how to get the same color, I tried some paint but the color does not match. I feel headache now because the color not match I feel not perfect. Arrrhh !! my brain hurt.... I can't even sleep at night I would just keeping checking my racket just to see the chip.... How do you guys get over it. It been 1 weeks still can't get over it I love the racket so much so damn beautiful more than women.

    Curing may satisfy you, or not. Sometimes it's better off doing nothing.

    People age & die through the course of time. All I can say is, get over it.

    If you're literally losing sleep over a chip, I don't think we're the right people to be looking to for help....

    Get some nail polish. Worst comes to worst you'll have to mix and match to get the right shade...

    Get over it. This is badminton, not a beauty contest.

    Hey, it's only a racket (and still perfectly functional).

    You should be disappointed if you don't have any chips on your racket, it probably means you aren't taking it seriously enough.

    Lol... in a way I understand what he's going thru. The bad news is the first chip/clash on a mint racket is the hardest to take. But wait! The good news is that it'll only get better with time as your racket gets more and more chips.

    Like a brand new car, the first door ding is the hardest, and it gets easier from there on... ;)

    The problem is that I Just bought another racket and within a week it got chip from hitting the shuttecock while smashing. If the racket is 1 year old at least I can understand, But this racket is only 1 week old and I only play one time already chip. I am very careful person I even make sure I don't clash with my friend racket. But to chip from a shuttlecock while smashing arrghh I can't even think about it my brain hurt.

    ^ Minor chips can be very easily fixed with colour matched nail polish.

    Just do the chip, only do what is necessary otherwise it will end up looking weird.
