Quick answer: Let it dry, then lightly sand and polish if needed to blend with the surrounding finish. Always test the color first on a hidden spot to confirm the match and gloss. After the final coat has fully cured, you can use very fine wet sandpaper and a soft polishing compound to smooth and shine the repair. Take your time. The thinner and smoother your coats, the easier the blend will be. Other customers have also asked: How can I make my repair spot less noticeable? How do I make the new paint match the old paint?

Quick answer: Clean and prep the area, apply several thin coats, and finish with clear coat for protection and shine. If bare metal or plastic is showing, use primer before applying color. Allow each coat to dry fully before adding the next one. Several light coats will blend much better than one heavy coat. After applying the clear coat, wait a few days before polishing or waxing so the paint can harden completely. Other customers have also asked: How do I use the touch-up paint I bought?
