    Hello, detailing newbie checking in.



    Just repaired a nasty nasty scratch and am pretty satisfied with the result. Problem - got a strange spot just under the scratch that looks like paint damage due to wetsanding. I used 2000 grit, and I honestly have no clue how I got it - it`s well below the scratch I was sanding.



    Pics are below.

    I had to zoom in to get it in the picture, it`s really tiny, about nail sized.



    Two questions:

    -What could I possible do wrong with my wetsanding to cause this? This is my first car and I`m a really DIY guy, and not afraid to make mistakes... as long as I learn what I did wrong for the future :]

    -What are my options in fixing this spot? Thankfully it`s an inconspicious area, but I`d love to get it done anyways



    Thanks in advance





    You can see the darker spot in the top left.





    I circled the scratch on top and the darker patch on the bottom. Sorry for Paint quality.
