Hey guys,

I gave it a shot last weekend, and here is the result:



It’s not great by any means, but does the job of hiding the scratches. Here is how I did it:

1) Washed/cleaned surface with goof off to remove any paint transfer
2) Washed surface with soap and water
3) Sanded entire scratch region
4) Used rustoleum 2 in 1 touch up paint + primer, applied a few coats.
5) Let the rustoleum paint + primer dry, then applied a few coats of BMW Sapphire black base coat.
6) Let the base coat dry, applied a few layers of clear coat.
7) Finished off with some turtle wax rubbing compound once the clear coat dried overnight, then polished.

We’ll see how it lasts, but hopefully it’s fine. If I could do it, literally anyone can. Thanks for all the tips and advice everyone!
Appreciate 2
