One of my sons has a 2014 corsa that has a slight problem. The bodywork is mint apart from a small " bubble of paint " on the very tip of the bonnet above the grill. He just asked me if it would be better to just touch it up or rub it down then touch it up. sctatchinghead I know nothing about painting cars can anyone advise please sctatchinghead

I'm no expert but it seems to me if you want rid of the bubble you will need to rub it down. Otherwise you are just touching up the bubble. Of course you could end up making a bit of a mess so you could just leave well alone.

Think there is a restoration place in the town somewhere, Others might know.
Maybe the Headland. Get the best advice there i would think.

Could always try your local Chips Away franchise, the Durham lad is very good.
