I've just sorted a little bit of rust out which was developing on the corner of the wheel arch connecting to the front bumper. I resprayed it yesterday afternoon and up close you can see the new paint next to the old, when would it be safe to t-cut it to blend them together?

T-cut is harsh, as said G3 is better, but I would leave it a week or so to harden...

Nope I had a can of moonstone already, my paint work hasn't faded hardly so it's almost unnoticeable, I just want to rub it down so there isn't a step down from the new paintwork to the old
