Default Re: Touch up paint

Msantos... When you do this type of repair, what size masking do you use? Is it the same size as the damaged area or a little larger? Do you sand down the touched up area to "feather" the new paint into the old?

I've tried these methods and just can't seem to get the paints to match. I guess it's the quality of paint I've used in the past? Any recommendations on an online place or brand name for spray touch-up in Alabaster Silver?

Congrats on keeping your cars in such good condition! Considering the beating they take in the frigid north, that's quite an accomplishment!
