I have problems with neighborhood kids as well. They like to vandalize just for the sake of vandalizing. They lit fireworks off on my neighbor's truck's hood. Put potted plants all over the car of another neighbor, threw dog **** in to people's cars if they left the windows open a bit...

This is why I do everything to cram my Cobalt in the garage:





That and hurricane Irene will have no respect for my SS.

fill it in higher than the surrounding paint, then you can sand it flush

From: I have no idea what I'm doing.
I would say apply the paint a little more heavily with the brush portion and then wet sand. When I first got my G6 someone had done this to the front bumper (applied a **** load of touchup paint) and it had brushmarks all throughout it, I wet sanded it and it looked mint.
