I need to blend it the best I can and need some advice on how to approach this.. I have cleaned and lightly sanded the area. I'm guessing I'll need to apply several coats to bring it up to the level of the good paint. It will likely take several more applications. Yes, it still had primer in good condition.
My first attempt with just a tiny brush looks OK but far from perfect which likely I can't get w/o a spray. Will a coat of clear as a final make it blend in better ? | | | | | Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 1,901 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 1,901 | Do you have the chip?
How long has it been there?
Is bare metal exposed?
What kind of paint and how many layers?
Give me ambiguity
or give me something else

Likely I should have used a tiny spray bottle but it's done now. | | |
