Default Trying to fix rock chips on hood. *HELP NEEDED!*

I need the help of the S2ki detailer gods!

So basically i had these 2 huge rock chips on my hood then went down to the metal.

I bought touch up paint, dabbed it on, and repeated for about 4-5 coats. After everything dried, i began the process of sanding, watering, sanding watering, etc. Now my hood looks like this...







So i'm worried as crap now because i had done the same process on key marks and when it looked like this, i just used Scratch X 2.0 or Nu Finish Scratch Doctor to make the sanded parts look normal again.

The only problem now is that it's not working and i dont know what to do!!!! help please!

oh btw, i'm doing this by hand

you need a machine probably, and it looks like you sanded a bit too far.. looks kinda like you hit primer already

DoooD You were suppose to sand just a little with 2500 or 3000 gritt to level paint.


If Scratch X 2.0 Doesn't work which is nearly as strong as Meg's 105 then you are in trouble.
