hi all opinions please my car is the stone grey. it is scratched and few marks not rusty though. I like the thought though of matt black and it covers all the marks well a1nd goes on nice and flat. where as the grey is hard to feather in and match in. do you think it is worth trying again with the grey or be brave and do the whole car matt black?????
