I am more of a mechanical and electrical guy, when it comes to paint I am lost. The original owner decided to put a rubber molding on the side of the car in 1976 to "protect" the car. He sanded the paint so it would stick real good. I have removed the molding without loosing any paint, but its needs touch up. It is original lacquer paint, so matching and painting the least amount of the door as possible is my goal. I bought a craftsman touch up air gun for the project. What do you think? Use lacquer? PPG? How should I sand it? What grit? How do I do this and make it look correct?
