David, If it's a very small repair, I'd suggest a "doty" type repair. Just get some S&S black lacquer from Wurdack and "dot" the lacquer in the area to be repaired. Build it up so it's just slightly above the surface, let it cure and then work it back down. If it's small, I'd probably use a chisel to get the repair nearly flat, then sand and blend it in as necessary (to p400 or p600, then 0000 steel wool with a polish). William R.
