2009 Toyota Camry gun metal grey. Nasty rust spots on hood. I bought a cheap grinding drill bit and buffed out the rust spots. Dabbed on two coats of the Dupli-Color. You can see those spots on the far right side of the picture. I should have stopped there.
In the middle of the picture you can see the results of wet-buffing the painted spots with grit 2000 sandpaper. I was gentle but it still scuffed up the nearby paint.
Then on the left side you can see the results of painting, buffing with sandpaper, and then using the gloss. Hey look at these shiny pockmarks. I'm no auto-guy with a garage full of tools and stuff. I just took a shot from amazon and youtube videos. Wasn't worth it.
I should have kept it simple and cheap: grinder drillbit and touch-up paint. Done. The pockmarks aren't THAT visible. This paint is fine. Don't get your expectations up with youtube videos. 5 stars then.
