I just went a checked out an Accord to buy since I sold my truck. The car was perfect except the owner used black spraypaint to touch up a scuff on his door... And the whole rear bumper was spraypainted... That will really bug me because I am a perfectionist when I detail the car. My question is, will i be able to buff out or blend the paint? Maybe buff OFF the spraypaint and have it repainted at a shop? It will just bug me that it is spraypainted to touch up.. I want to know if it salvagable before I buy the car.

It might be worth trying to polish but so much depends upon the quality of the spraying and what prep work was carried out. If the work is not to a high standard one option might be to get the panels sprayed by a professional

Get an estimate for repainting the bumper and take that of the price of the car.
