    Re: Sanding a tiny spot?

    It's done..........let's not argue about chemical or manual.

    I tried the sand-paper on the end of a dowel. After trying this, I do not recommend it! It is too difficult to control. The dowel slipped off the higher touch-up spot and damaged some of the surrounding good paint surface. So I immediately stopped and tried the Langka Blob Eliminator even thought this touchup spot is probably over two years old. It took down the touchup paint leaving only the original chip and the small area I damaged with the sandpaper. I then dabbed on some correct color touchup paint and am allowing that to dry 24 hours. I will then use the Langka again to cut down the height and will finish with #80 (#83 if necessary).

    So, in the end I did use a chemical method after trying and failing with the manual method.

      Not surprised at all on what you learned.....been there done that. The Langka/chemical approach is probably the safest route for the non-professional (I include myself in that group), but that's just my opinion.
