You know what that means don't yuh ? Your a Skyler magnet lol.
But yea, that was sort of strange...out of the blue.
I am a magnet, aren't I? Lol. Not sure what major award I won for that prestigious honor.

Whitey, do you have a Carl's Jr? That's Hardees too. Same owner same menu now. I won't personally buy from them, but that's me.
Yes, but Carl's is like Burger King here. Flame broiled. Hardee's wasn't when we had them. I knew they probably had the same parent company because I have seen Hardee's biscuits on their menu.
Paint Question: In touching up and wet-sanding some gouges on this new-used hood, I >just< got past the clear coat in a spot about the size of a dime. Should I (A) proceed as-is to polish out the hood, then just make sure to keep it waxed, or (B) hit it with some Duplicolor clear, and try to feather it into the factory paint? (I think I know the answer - A.) The Duplicolor DSG touch-up paint is *not* the same as the factory color (it's darker) , so it's already not going to be perfect. Comments/thoughts?

Reason: Added pics
I have a guy that will color match by eye, perfectly. It costs about 17 dollars for a bottle of touch up paint from him. I would go try and find a auto body and paint supply that will color match for you. I think you'll be a lot happier with the results, and will be much less noticeable.

I would have been happier, but at this point, the clear is on and sanded, ready to buff (hence my clear-coat "oops"). I thought the mismatch may have been due to the fresh paint and/or not being cleared, but I was wrong. :/ At least it will look better than the hood that's on it now.
