I have a small scratch on the roof and some chips in the pass. rear quarter panel. I would like to repair these and avoid spraying large areas as much as possible. Perhaps airbrush, wet sand, I don't know This is the small scratch that barely catches my nail These are chips on Quarter Panel Close up of Quarter Panel Another close up
Any advice would be appreciated.
Also, and most importantly, I could use some referrals for someone to do the work. I live in SF but could do anywhere from Marin south to Palo Alto
I would just start with some DR ColorChip do it yourself touch up paint and see if you like that. $50 or so and that might be all you need.
Those look fairly deep and beyond the realm of a polish and/or wet sand help. All that does is bring down the clear coat (and possibly paint) surrounding the chipped area to the lower level of the chip, so I would not advise doing that.
Find a pro in your area and see how the touch up results come out. They can likely get it to the 80% mark or better. It takes time, patience and skill to get it blended. But it is possible.
