MakIng good a botched touch up job
 
Hope someone can suggest what to do.
Touching up stone chips with Subaru Wrb paint and all was well. Got carried away and applied it to 3 x 5p piece patches - two on drivers side Bonnet and one on drivers side
Wing. Patches I tried to cover were two relatively large shallow chips
and a small discoloured patch probably caused by bird droppings.

Looks obvious and crap. Had been a long day and was not thinking straight.

Do I need to take it to a body shop to remove my terrible efforts or can the likes of chips away do it? How much would be a reasonable price to put right?

Never again!

Mate we have all done something like that.

If it is really that bad try a bodyshop or chips away etc for a price.

Can you post a picture? Someone with better knowledge than myself can confirm etc?

Cheers Steve. Chips away said too much for them so looks like bodywork shop. No pics at the moment I'm afraid.

No idea what a 'good' price would be? Basically taking three blobs of paint off and reinstating properly.

Any ideas?

We need pics to judge properly, surprised chips away turned it down though
