Had some small gouges in the rear bumper due to a parking lot mishap and went to touch it up tonight. As anyone who's tried to use the WDP touchup knows, that touchup stuff sucks - it's like clear nail polish with sparkles, and whatever's underneath shows through. Not good, as the bumper is black underneath.

Anyhow,what I did was go to the car parts store and buy some plain old white touchup, and put that on first. The WDP after and on top gave it the right look, but if I had to do it again I'd just mix the two first. Hope this helps anyone unfortunate enough to need to do this.

 

Thanks for the tip. I have some rock chips on my hood and fender that I need to take care of.

 

Touch up paint sucks!! I tried fixing a ding on my bumper and it ended up looking worse...more noticable than the ding itself. IMHO, if it ain't all that bad, leave it be.

 

Did you mix the contents of the touch-up bottle thoroughly ?

 

Yep, shook it for like 7 minutes b/c I knwe how weak it was from last time I tied to use it. Maybe I got a bad bottle? Oh well, it works ow combined with the white stuff from Pep Boys.
