I can't tell how big this is, but if is bigger than a pencil eraser, then you need to use a spray can. |

You are going to want to pick a place to spray the clearcoat too. So I would scuff a much larger area so you can spray clearcoat about a foot wider than the repair, preferably to an edge. See https://www.paintscratch.com/touch-up-paint-directions/blend.htm. Also, I would scuff about six inches more on either side so when you spray the primer and basecoat, it will adhere properly. |

Can you take more pictures? Perhaps from different angles? Looks excellent. |
