Right, i have started a DIY respraying my alloys, im fine with all the sanding priming, however when i sprayed the first layer of black paint it was fine, then the second layer i sprayed into one of the nut hole but accident and some sort of dust flew out and landed on the paint, which then i was stupid enough to attempt to get rid of it, which left a mark, when i sand it, it seems to have left a patch of missing layer (if you get me) , what is the best solution to this? as the other part of the alloy are fine , do i just sand it with some p800 sanding paper until its gone? or will i need to prime it again?
Using can's !
and sorry about the long story (:
any help?
Many thanks !!

Very gently use 1200 wet and dry make sure its wet and gently rub it till your happy, then once your happy if its only prima just give it a nice little spary over :)

I would probably smooth out the rough area the best I could with the fine grit paper then spray some primer over that area and smooth that out once dry then carry on painting

would it affect the coating if say i sprayed primer then paint then primer again?
