<< < (3/3)

shifter:
I think your best bet is bite the bullet and spray again ,save time etc as you wouldn’t be happy with it as every time you passed the bike you will look at it first ,no touch up etc etc ,with cover  better than full blast over ,££££.  “ s...e happens “.....

You can still see it if you look close but its not horribly visible.
Your problem will be finding somebody with the required skill  willing to spend the time and effort to mix up a small ammount and then it will be new water based not solvent based so may not work as well.
Best of luck sorting it.
