    Would this work on a car that had been keyed? One of my daughter's friends had her car keyed with some not so nice verbage and I was wondering if this might hide it somewhat. Or is there some other paint repair system out there that is recommended?

    I can't imagine a touch up paint looking good if it's a big section that's been carved out. You could probably call Colors on Parade and have them just come out and re-spray the door. They filled/repainted the rear bumper of my RX-8 for about $150 in a few hours and come to you.

    Thanks, I'll pass that along. The other system I was trying to think of was Langka. I've not had experience with either system so I wasn't sure if it would help hide the damage. It covers a large area of the trunk and it made a 17 year old girl cry.

    How does Colors on Parade come out and spray with EPA rules and regulations on paint booths and air quality and such?

    I'm not really sure on EPA rules, maybe they use water based paints that are legal. The guy just came to my garage, mixed up the paint in the van taped off some areas, prepped and painted a few coats, let it dry then clearcoat and buff. It came out really good, on par with most body shops in the area and the color matched dead on even in the bright winning blue. I think they do most panels for about $150 bucks it's worth a shot.

    What color is the car and is she planning on changing her ways?

    If she is not planning on changing her ways find a can of rustoleum that most closely matches the car then spray it and as an added bonus next time it happens just pull out the rattle can!

    In my youth I had a young lady carve DICK in the side of my Truck (in the L.D. Bell High School Parking Lot), with some work with a screwdriver I was able to make it read MICK. Personalized Bling-Bling!

    Once I got enought together I ended up taking it to Metroplex Auto Body on Hwy 10 and getting it painted.
