A- depends on how bad the chip is, and how well the repair is done.
A good repair is not noticable and has little effect on the value, JMHO.

B-Depends! Clean grips on a well used pistol are not "right", neither are oily worn out grips on a 98% pistol.

Again, a light cleaning is probably ok on most pistols - IF they need it. But no tru oil!

I'd rather someone leave them alone and let me decide to clean or not to clean. JMHO.

But definitely no oil!
