Hiya folks,
I'm p****d off, some idiot had the courtesy of reversing? into my Mazda6 today morning or last night, it was in front of my home, fortunately for him I did not see it. When I asked him, he said I don't have any witnesses and it could have been anyone, that SOB!
Anyhow, he's managed to basically scrape my paint off the rear bumper in several places, you can see the bumper plastic. My question to you knowledgable folks is could I apply touch-up paint to it, if so, how difficult is it to apply for a capable DIY'er, obviously I've never really touched a car's paint before. Or would it be better to leave it to someone who knows what he's doing?
Let's say I decided to apply the touch-up myself what are the chances of ending up with blobs/botches or is there a trick to applying the paint to get it even such as using a toothpick?
Read about the toothpick somewhere along time ago when someone did the same to my BMW a while back, I never got around to it and sold it with the little scruff.
I don't want to go the dealership for something like this as I'm presuming they would be more interested in replacing the bumper as it would be quicker to repair? at a cost of around 350 quid!
Any advice appreciated. Many thanks!
