The discovery has a couple of patches of AWOL lacquer. Whats the best way to treat? Flat and clearcoat a small patch around it or full panel job.

Bear in mind its a 12yo workhorse.

Anyways, pics....

Full panel job! Will have to be taken back and repainted (colour and clearcoat) but the chances of it being close match to standard 12 year old paintwork are small!

Doubt it would make much difference. Aslong as you didn't pay over the odds for it?
