there are a small trail of scratches on the rear panel behind the wheel well from some dumb **** who hit it with their car.

you cant see the scratches until you are close up but it bothers me because i know they are there.

i want to put that paper around the panel so i can just touch up the small effected area with some paint and clearcoat.

don't clear coat it! if it's a scratch on the clear coat, take some rubbing compound to it then polishing compound then wax. if you spray it with clear, you'll be sorry you even tried it and that "unnoticeable" spot will now be noticeable!
