"09rubico" had some good advice tho seemed more aimed at spray paint to me. Thanks to all!
Same advice would apply to spray paint, or any blend for that matter, your just working in a smaller area is all. All I was trying to get across is Touch-Up paint can actually work really well, but you have to put more effort into it than just applying it.

Thank's Bud, I guess im afraid of making a bad thing worse. I might try to Clay bar the two area's to see if that help's smooth them out. Thank's again!

If you want to get some practice first try doing a scratch on the underside of your hood or a doorjam where it wont be seen, if you like the results do the big scratch.
