I am planning on doing some touch up paint on my car in a few places. The first place is on the rear spoiler where there is a 3 in. long and 1/8 of an inch wide scrape that barely got down to the metal.
For this my plan was:
1. brush on some primer, dry
2. brush on paint, dry
3. sand ???? (what grit would be best)
4. brush on clearcoat
It is so small I cannot see using bondo.
The next place I need to paint is on the back bumper the last owner tried to paint in the mustang letters black but it they did a horrible job. To paint those letters back to my factory yellow I plan to:
1. sand off the black (what grit would I use?)
2. spray on primer
3. spray on paint
4. spray on clearcoat
My question is do those steps look good? I am not very sure about when to sand and what grits to use. Also, when using the touch up spray, should I use tape to mark off everything but the area I want to paint ( I heard this can create bumps in the paint ? Or, do I leave about an inch of room around the area I sanded and mark the rest off?
