Sand the entire panal smooth, mask everything off, then spray it with REAL auto paint (not that **** in a can) and then after the black, go over it with clear coat. Go over to Macco or what ever the hell it is. The only reason they do things so cheap is because they skip on the prep work. As long as you prep things yourself and have them just do the paint... you should be okay. Thats an idea.

they dont skip on the prep all they do is sand it enough for their paint to stick maybe with a lil bit of feathering....but if its just oxidized and not peeling u can get it buffed out that is also a not so expensive method of going about it
