Great write-up and great work, thanks for taking the time to share. Hope you're getting less snow than we are in Calgary right now.

Edit - Question:

If you're adding clear at the end and before sanding, isn't there a danger if you build up the basecoat too deep that you will sand all the clearcoat off while levelling the scratch?

Also, is it worth masking off an inch out from around the whole scratch to reduce how much area you're sanding?
