Unhappy Scuffed up BUMPER!!!

Someone bumped into my car today and scuffed up my bumper real bad! No note, or contact info was left. I'm sure I'll be able to remove about 80% of the damage with the PC but a couple spots on my bumper are down to the primer about the size of a quarter. I have plenty of touch up paint to cover these spots. Is there a method of correcting this damage with out having to hire someone to paint my bumper. For example, paint ->sand -> polish -> paint -> sand -> polish, until you get the surface you want. It's a black car.

Thanks,

Waldron80

Sorry for what happened...I hate people who are inconsiderate. THey're too scared to leave their info and take responsibility. As for your touch up process, well I haven't had experience so I can't help you there. Hopefully someone chimes in

I'm no expert on touch up paint but what I have done is in this sequence, Paint-paint-paint-sand-compound-polish. I keep layering the paint until it is higher than the surrounding paint in good condition and then take it back down. So far it's turned out good.
