Nice job there Cem, only problem (1st 2 Pics) is you have filled in and painted over the driver Key Lock below the Handle.  :o



sorry Zirk , pictures may have misleaded you..  :-\

unmasked painting area was no more thicker than 1 mm (vertical)  .. so no problem there ..

however, after the application I developed my theory a bit further..   may be its best to use several color coats without laquer (if colors matched)
than sand until reaching original surface leaving paint only inside.. when the surface is nearly level using normal laquer only 2 tiny coats thick.. than sanding and polishing again..

or in case color is very hard to match using laquer only.. and several layers to fill but 2-3 applications and sanding after every application..
so excess laquer layer  always removed easily.. :y

ps: however, depending on the shape and size , such as stone chip application may change a bit..

must note also , after the application most hard part was removing excess laquer thickness and it was scratch resistent..

also surface tension increases the thickness of laquer between masking bands.. so later I will try a few milimeters wider painting with several applications.. and sanding in between..  but of course masking everytime and waiting dry up is tedious..

however, here an original unpainted car is very precious so painting only scratch area is preferred method for most car owners.. even if they pay more..
