RC Chipped Paint Help
For my RC 200t Silver Lining Metallic, I have a less than a quarter of a penny deep chipped paint on the lower end of the right side-bumper.
What's the best solution this?
In fact, I bought the touch-up paint from the Lexus dealer, and they told me to just apply to it, and I don't have to sand it or apply a primer or coat.
Any thoughts? Thank you.

Fortunately yours is on a hidden place on the car. On my '14 ES300h, I had same problem right near my driver's side wiper, at the bottom; and on the RC, I have it at the top left windshield border, and the driver's door edge. Very annoying and disconcerting,

I understand the frustration because I am a little OCD especially when this is a new car even though the damage is not very conspicuous.
I actually started a new thread talking about the same problem seeking for the self-repair solution in the IS section and someone has replied to me with some good advice. You should check it out.

How I know that.
I know the number of stages due to the fact that I had my Infra Red RC recently repainted multiple times.
Here is the thread about my journey. It took just about six months for the whole thing to be 100% resolved and two body shops.

Nope
No employment with Lexus or Google search gave me that knowledge. Good old experience with two shops to repaint my infrared RC. I saw the bulletin from Lexus which states in print, five stages.
