I have two areas of my car that needs touching up. And was wondering how to approach it. Do I just apply it or is there more to it? I tested the brush and it's too wild so I used a toothpick to kinda just lightly blot a test area but it doesn't dry out smooth. I was thinking maybe sanding it lightly?

The areas are small, one is a 1"x 1/8" scratch on the front plastic bumper, and the other is a 3/8" hole from removing my spoiler.
