Default Small Rock Chip

Within a week of buying my brand new 370Z, I got a nice deep rock chip on the front bumper. I can deal with rock chips, but this one was a beauty.


Anyways, went to nissan and got the touch paint and filled it in.

I have not brought the paint up to a level surface. You cannot see the touch up from far away, but you can see it from close up.

My question to you wise folks is this.

Should I try and put on another coat to make it look better and bring it up a little higher?

Or leave as is? No matter what I do it will always be noticeable? If so, no point messing around with it.

I don't want to make things worst, and I don't want to paint the bumper yet.

I can upload a pic tomorrow as well to show you guys. I have searched the forums and real all the touch up paint threads.

I guess I am just trying to find out how good of a touch paint job one can actually do. When you see the commericials it looks like you cannot even notice the touch paint. I think reality if different however.

Also, once the paint is dry, will polishing the area help to blend it in?

Thanks
