What would be the best way to paint these scratches and scuffs?
I don't want to go overboard and paint the whole bumper, but i dont want it to stand out and look ****house either.
Next time when I loose my temper I wont throw my bumper
Sorry about the pic size.
Thanks

should i sand it a bit? if so what grit sandpaper would be best. I hvent really touched up any exterior paint before
personally i wouldnt sand it because the bigger the area the more harder to touch it up. Id get some buffing compound and see what comes out but i dont like your chances
if you want to sand it you would probly want about 800 grit with lots of water ? problem with plastic / fibreglass bumpers is that normal paint won't stick to the plastic, so success depends on if the scratches are into the plastic ? You can get a special primer to make it stick tho.
yeah they are pretty deep. I think its an aftermarket front bar cause under the white its black. I think they are clear underneath on genuine parts?
Also is there a specific way to blend the old paint with the new paint?
Hmm i recon I'll leave it for now, and just paint the whole front & rears together, I want to fibreglass the recess part where the pinstripe thingy went so I'll do it then.
Thanks for the help.
no worries mate
