  1. yikes this hurt so much to watch as an auto body hobbyist. so many missing basic steps to prevent more damage. always tape off the intended work area. the putty you used is way too heavy as you just need a light material to fill the paint gap. no automotive grade or metal adhesion needed. you want to first tape the area, sand the area. apply anti rust coasting. then apply filler. sand. paint. sand. clear coat. sand. buff. finish.

  2. This is baaad. Mix a tiny bit of filler and press it into the scrape, using the scraper to form it to the shape of the frame, without any getting outside the area you are working on. Let it cure, then do the same thing again. This prevents you from damaging the area outside the scratch, and stops you from deforming the shape when you're sanding a massive lump of filler you've dumped onto the frame like a total amateur
