i want to spray my stone chips and this really annoying bunch of scratewches by the lock which was bought liek this. I know the paint code so i have an exact match but can anyone give me some tips to do it all right so that the new paint doesnt stand out to much.

I'm not a spraying expert but I'm an engineer. you need to watch out what you are spraying onto your car as when the paint is made it is made within a tolorence.

Basically the guy who made the paint has a certain amount of colours he needs to add in but it will be like 2 - 3% of .... and 39 - 51% .... so you could go to a few different paint places with the same code and get totally different results as one place may but 40 % of somnt in and another may put 50%. So maybe try it like inside of your door or somnt first jus to make sure.

Justa bit of advise

There was a guide on how to remove stone chips on E38. Was i nthe detailing section.

I thought you just get those little pens of paint from halfords? or you could try T-cutting them out
