It must be properly prepared by sanding to remove surface oxidation. This sanding stick is part of a touch-up kit.

You must build up the repair with several coats of touch-up paint. Let it dry between each coat. Build the paint up until it is higher than the paint surrounding the repair. With a small sanding block, sand the paint repair until it is flush with the paint around it. Use #600 wet or dry sandpaper to blend the repair into the surrounding area. If your vehicle is not clear-coated, use rubbing compound to bring up the shine. If it has a clear-coat finish, get a wax remover and wipe off the surrounding paint.

Spray the sanded area with clear coat. Lightly sand clear coat with #1500 sandpaper on a soft sanding block, then wipe off the dust particles with a cotton cloth to clean the work area. The final step is to apply a few good coats of wax to protect the repaired area from moisture.
