My truck originally came with mudflaps. They got ripped off during a heavy snowstorm and to be honest, I never liked them anyway. Once they came off there was alot of paint damage from debris being stuck between the guard and the paint. I ordered 2 ozof 91U from Paintscratch and 2 oz of clear. Im not too sure how to go about such a big touch up job. I was going to airbruch the color coat and then apply the clear in several coats. then wet sand using megs wet sandpapers or micro mesh(leaning more towards micromesh) then polish and wax. I would like to know if any of you may want to add or have another apprroach to correcting this.

Have you gone over that with a good paint cleaner?



I don`t have any advice on paint touch up, but I`ll be interested to see how good of a result you can get.

Its down to the primer. Somespots are below primer. It needs refinishing.
