      Flip flop paint

      Hi all...I have flipflop paint (DuPont Chromalusion) on my Firebird from when I painted it in ´96 or so. Theres some dings on the door from some idiot when it was parked a few years ago. Is it possible to repair flipflop paint to match??

      It should blend the same as any other base/ clear. If I remember correctly, they're intended to go over a specific base color (usually black, but use whatever color originally was used), so you may need additional room to blend it out.
