OK so here is my predicament, I have a 95' maro, and it has the common chipps in in front of the rear wheels on the rear qtr. from rocks hitting it. I sanded where there was bear metal and put a few coats of paint on and a couple coats of clear coat. I used actual automotive paint not spray paint. How will this hold up and will it keep peeling back from water getting inbetween where the touch up paint and the old paint meet? Thanks a lot. Also does anyone know if painters/ body guys can just paint the lip on your rear quater the curls under into your fender walls and also like just little "spot sparys" (if they a do good color matching thanks a lot.

 

Anyone?

 

?????

 

OK, here are my answers...
1) It should be alright
2) it shouldn't
3) yes, and maybe.

If you prepped the area well before painting, you won't be getting any water between the old and new paint. Actually, even if you didn't prep it well, you wouldn't get water between the two, but the new paint could pop off eventually and you'd be back where you started from.
A body shop can paint just the lip. And painting up to a hard line (fender lip edge) is a good way to hide a blend anyway.
But if you have a bunch of spots here and there on the same panel, repainting the whole panel would be the only right way to do it.

 

ok thanks and the yea that is what I would be doing is painting the whole panel for the most part thanks a lot. That helped me out bunches.
