I hate to tell you this being that you're an ex LEO but I use it mostly to paint the letters on our car/motorcycle tags. The letters on them are GREEN, not a good color, so I paint them black. I have several LEO riding buds that do it and don't seem to have a problem with it. I've been doing it for me and others for years and haven't gotten in a jam yet. I really don't think anybody notices because Oklahoma has a gajillion personalized-type tags in all different colors. I guess if they can read it, it's OK.

I've never had one big enough to worry about sanding. Mostly just tiny rock chips. I've never put clearcoat over a touchup. They were so small that I'm sure it wouldn't have made any difference anyway.

I tried to get a spray can of Black Cherry Pearl a few months ago but the dealer said they were no longer available.
