In one of those "how hard can it be moments" I keep thinking I can repair some small blemishes in the paint myself at home.
I've investigated how to prep and apply paint on YouTube, some good videos IMO.
What's putting me off the idea is that the YouTube advice on repairing a small dent, which is similar in size to the 50p blemish I have, is to repaint the whole panel. I was hoping to only have to paint an area 3-4 time the size of the blemish i.e. palm sized for a 50p blemish.
Anyone have any DIY experience and success in small local repairs? Or is the best advice to visit a local bodyshop?
