    Doing the best I can but have never messed about with the likes. To add to the complexity, its a two tone colour - (Nissan) Pearl White. I dabbed in what was the undercoat. Naturally I have not matched it and Im a bit scared to go back and add the second coat (2nd tone). They also gave me a laquer to put on.


    Can anyone explain to me how I can do at least a bit better with this (bar the obvious ie going to a professional). Id like to get someways competent at this.

    Painting is about 90% Preparation and 10% Painting application. You might need to apply something like Stopping filler to iron out any slight marks et. Not Dents. for those you need filler.
