Stone chip problem
I bought a brand new SEAT Ibiza in January this year and have covered 8000 miles so far. There are a few small stone chips on the bonnet and a larger one on the drivers side front door. I was wondering do you know if this make and model are prone to stone chips in general or might there be a quality issue with the paint? The colour is non metallic emocion red.

Some paint is more susceptible than others, for example metallic blue and solid black.

My car is left outside on a daily basis. As a result the window seals have gone green with moss growth. How can I clean this off with out damaging the bodywork?
Will using bleach or a weed killer to get rid of green moss/lichen on my paintwork? Or will it simply damage the bodywork?
I purchased a 2012 Jaguar XJ (12 plate) six weeks ago from an authorised Jaguar dealer, with about 22,500 miles on the clock. After purchase I waxed the car with Autoglym and it looked great.
