Other paint chip repair methods?

Non Focus discussion. Pretty much other cars and off topic stuff.

I've got the blob remover but I'm not happy about the slight change in paint color for the repair. Is there another way? I'm thinking that a razor blade might work to shave down the blob.

That's way too much just for a few paint chips! Might as well get the entire hood painted...

You asked.....

take the 400 grit sand paper and wet sand it then. It'll get rid of the blobs and it will blend it in. And that really isn't a lot to do. Just a few steps and getting your whole hood painted will cost about $350-400 depending on how much sanding they have to do to it :lol:
