Need a little Brooklin advice.
I picked up Mr. Browne's 48 Roadster Convertible, top down in blue and it has a flaw in the hood. I'm not complaining as I got it for about half price. But it would be great to fix. I've attached a photo so you can see what I mean. Any thoughts if it is correctly or better blendable than current?

It looks like some paint got on it...
I can kinda see the original color under. Did you try wiping it with water, or using a wax or automotive polish on the spot?
Cheers!

I agree, some gentle polishing may do the trick. I use Simichrome.

The flash changed the look some. It feels like nail polish.
