Thank you guys. I learnt alot from this discussion. I went to a well known body shop in Orlando. He told me he will repaire the damaged spot, however he has to repaint the whole hood with clear coat again. He told me the clear coat is impossible to make it blend and it will be obvious if I didnot finish the whole hood with clear coat. I think his opnion is good.

thanks for the link, what should be the next step now? I used only 2000 grid for just 1 minute. I used plenty of water but I did around 1 pm, I think the coat temperature was too high. I have no idea what is the LSP mentioned in the other thread and how to apply it ?

Thanks again

well im no expert but i got 2000 grit sandpaper in a scratch repair kit and the directions said to wet sand for no longer then 15 seconds or you risk going through the clear, your first post said u sanded for only 2 MIN,Then this post says only 1 MIN, so im thinking you did it to long. you should of just tried compounding it first.

my idea for fixing it is use touch up paint since its only a small spot

A good body shop can fix for ?

The spot painting is small but they have to clear the whole panel.

I get my whole hood painted for $500.00.
