Paint question.

Im about to buy a pearl white 92SE and the bumper has a scrape on it and the previous owner used a touch up paint thats not the exact color. If I purchase the Nissan touch up paint can I go over it will it look natural or as natural as touch up paint can look or will it just look like a sloppy mess.

lol. you might want to sand it and then use the touch up paint rather than just paint over it. Of course, you have to have the b_lls to sand a portion of your bumper like I did. I never got around to adding a second coat of gloss or touch up on it tho, but it doesnt look bad at all.

Re: Re: Paint question.

FYI the pearl color is pretty damn hard to match. you could try nissan or getting paint from www.paintscratch.com
