Does anyone happen to know of a guide for spraying metallic colours ?

I've had a niggle scarp on my wing when I bought the car I wanted to srt
out. Its a moon silver. The damage is far to central for a touch up job
and blending would be hard. So best bet is to do the whole panel. Not had
much practice over the years on metallic just flat colours. I've all the
proper kit just looking for any pointers \ guides on doing metallics.

BTW how big is the area requiring touch up? If it's a relatively fine
scratch, you're likely to have more luck blending in a small touch up done
with a fine brush than by spraying...

Its beyond a touch up in my experience. Basically the damaged it at the
front bit of the OS wing which goes inwards towads them iddle of the panel
about half the panels length. God knows WTF happened was like that when I
bought it, managed to get a little money of because of it.
