Hello, I am new to painting and must say it's a pretty lengthy process. I have a lot of respect for you guys out there that does this for a living. So much respect!
I screwed up while unmasking or demasking (not sure what you guys call it) my car. I was peeling off the tape and lifted the clear off the base. I guess the tape came off and got on the car. My dumb behind did not pay attention while spraying clear so the clear coat cured while the tape was on the edge of the car. Also, one edge did not get covered with clear (again, due to me not doing a better job masking). They are small issues as they are probably 1/16 to 1/4 of an inch.
This is my first paint and was wondering what do you guys do to correct the problem? Should I blend or re-clear the whole panel? I was thinking of spraying more base and re-clearing. What grit do you guys recommend when sanding the clear? I sprayed 4 coats of clear. Thank you and really appreciate the suggestions.
