I realize that you're trying to minimize the amount of panels that you're going to have to paint, but by masking off the area like that, you're more likely to notice the fix by the hard lines at the paint mis-match. I figure that you're probably buying paint matched to the color code of the vehicle, but '95 has had 11 years to fade to a slightly different shade.
If you don't feather and blend the new paint into the old, you're going to notice the fix. The next best thing to painting the whole car is to do whole panels. The seams between panels help to mask the fact that they can be a few shades off.
this is true i guess, but my dad said use 60 grit, and it worked well...i mean, he used it on his chevelle, and the car is gorgeous....i also used red lead putty to fill all the sanding lines....i think its gonna turn out ok....it feels REALLY smooth right now, so i have faithRIO5.0 said:60 grit....I wouldn't even touch the car with that stuff...
I used nothing lower than 180 to start....60 grit is way to hardcore...I would keep that to the smallest area possible if you choose to use it...remember, the more scratches you put on, it's 4 times harder to get em out....
