Oh snap, sorry to hear that.

Prep the surface, as you would for a re-spray. Scotch brite pad will do fine, or you could 600 if you wanted to. Then re-spray panel. No primer necessary.

He'll learn or redo the whole panel in the process. Success either way.

yeah, i can't blend for ****, but it's ok b/c it was a motorcycle tank and i just sprayed it again without too much trouble.

ended up looking decent in the end, considering this was my 2nd real paint job.

thanks for the help all!
