    I’m looking to do this for my weekend project on a scratch on my car. Quick question – what’s the reason for apply a dilute of 50/50 ratio for the thinner with the paint? Thank you!

    nice work, i dont think id used the news paper personally, then there wouldnt have been a hard edge, but it worked ok anyway, good stuff.

    Can you add a hardener to the paint?

    I just finished doing mine. My paint isnt a single stage, though, and the areas I hit are easily visible in certain lighting. Not sure if I can spray the 2k clear or just buff and polish and hope for the best. Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Damn! Bummer. Should have left the playdough on there!

    try touching up 3 stage paint right in the middle of a large area with an airbrush, then get back to me
    I’ve realized it requires a totally different base metallic color to be used over what you would use if you were to paint an entire hood or fender spreading out the base
