    honestly you just need to start over, and as stated clear the whole thing. plus when you blend any thing, you can not do a stright line tape off. so if you insist on just blending again. tape off the decklid tailights, and quarter panel. don’t tape off any part of the bumper. plus you also need a blender to melt the clear into the old.

    Thanks thanks! I will be removing the patch shortly and starting from square one; keeping in mind, all the tips provided.

    I picked up some blender the last time I visited the guys at the paint shop, they said to use it to give the new clear coat edges to a chemical bond to the existing clear coat, so it doesn’t ‘peel’ in the long rong. If I clear the entire bumper (i.e., no ‘real’ edges), do I still use the blender to mist over the newly clear coated areas of the bumper as well, to give it that bonding effect like lild said?

    Thanks a million.

    no. if your going to clear the whole thing, use a grey scotchbrite pad and scotch the whole bumper througly.
