HI all,
My boat was painted by Magic Brush maybe 8 years ago...still in good shape. I dont know what paint was used but I know its base coat /clear coat. I have some small scratchs on the top deck,about 2 inch's long. whats the proper way to repair these doing them at home? I have color matched the paint and will be spraying it. Do I start by sanding down the scratch in a 2" x 2" square through the clear down to color? than spray the color a couple coats let dry, wet sand than clear? any help would be great,thanks

what color are you trying to repair and are there any colors or separations near by? Its best to keep the initial repair as small as possible so you can keep the gun work as small as possible as well.
