Rg2020x: piece of paint came off: how to fix?

I have a RG2020x, great guitar, with only one flaw: it seems to have a very thin paint coat on the body. Even a very soft hit can scrape it: yesterday I incidentally hit the panel of my combo with the contour of the body, and a very small piece (like 1mm) of paint came off *SIGH!* ( I HATE WHEN I SCRAPE MY GUITAR!!!

)Is there any way to fix this temporarily just to be sure that other paint won't start coming off from that point??
What about something like a small drop of clear nail polish in that point?

Nail polish isn't formulated to last a long time. If it's on more than 2 weeks it's a miracle. Use superglue. If you can put a little color under it to match all the better the repair.

What type of color and glue?

Uh, what color was the chip?!

Superglue is like clearcoat, it's clear.

It's transparent blue....but I mean: what type of paint(not the color)?

Anything trans will be tough, I'd just use a blue felt tip pen.
