i think im getting bored but here goes...i have a big scratch on the bottom lip of my front bumper, deep enough to be filled at least. i have the time to tinker at the moment and was considering fixing it myself. i know the paint supply place nearby will put the correct paint in a rattlecan for you and i am starting to get ideas...i think you guys see where this is going. with the correct prep is this do-able or is the bumper too noticeable of a place to not use a gun on? how crappy would duplicolor look? let the flaming begin in 3...2...1....
biggest part you would use touch up paint on???

I think it would be better if you got a brush on touch up paint, rather than anything in a spray can. It's be easier. You might be able to pick up a bottle from your deal for free.

if you not that good at painting(which you burned through clear) i would maybe look for a spot painter that airbrushes and can fix the spot for you.
well im not chip foose but i wont say i dont know what im doing either...i didnt ruin the finish but i can see where the clear was getting thin, lets not pretend that ford has a million coats of clear on these cars. i have now been questioning laying down the base coat and going somewhere to get it cleared, would the base coat be ok on the trip there? what about going somewhere to get a gun, an inexpensive one that is, how big of a compressor would i need, i have one now but its small for my air tools...now im rambling...

Eric, can you provide a close up of it. I guess if ever going to repaint your bumper, I would go for it. It's hard to tell from the picture but I think that the paint around that is scratched up too, right?
