Update on the Veil paint: apparently being so thin, it leaks through seams and underneath masking tape. I've got some lovely purple stains on my bumper now, some of which are quite bold. They recommend rubbing alcohol and some scrubbing to remove the stuff. That lightened the purple a little bit, but apparently the stain goes all the way into the paint. I went ahead and tried to scrub it out, and went through the factory paint on the bumper before the stain went away

So the moral of this story is: the risk of staining your paint is too high to apply this stuff on the car, imho. Remove the headlight units and the chrome badge from the car completely and paint them separate. I guess I'll see if I can get a dealer to fix these spots on my bumper/fender paint next week.
