It can be done with rattle cans and it won't look any different.

That might be okay for a bicycle, but not for a car. Not my car anyway.

The spoiler on my car is clear coated, and the clearcoat is poppin off all over the place. the exposed maroon paint looks dull, but is in tact. So, you are saying I can scrap the bubbling clear coat lightly, then feather the clearcoat down to make a smooth transisiton from existing CC to paint. Then extremely lightly sand everthing to achieve a color blend. Then recoat everything with CC and polish like a mad man. Is this correct? I could care less if it doesn't work. It is worth a shot. If it fails then I can just sand and repaint the whole thing.
You all and your conflicting info. ;) ;D

If it's something you bolted on because it's teh kewl, go ahead and give bicycleboy's advice a shot. A bolt-on spoiler would have already ruined any car, and if that's the case, even that bicycle advice would be an improvement.
Say, are they still painting vintage bikes with catalyzed polyurethane? That'd be great if they were, so we'd know that rattle-can enamel would definitely work, instead of guesstimating.....what kinda primer do you use to make those two dissimilar products work well together?
USS, you've moved on to another car by now, right? Or is all this jibber-jabber helping you decide?
