Pretty big improvement.

I also took a couple of close ups of the front bumper just to show how truly beat up it is from rock chips.

In all, it came out ok for what it is. At least those few nasty drip--like spots of etched paint mostly buffed out. Also, Mazda's touch up stick is as good as I've had for delivering the right amount of paint on a stone chip.

Turns out a few stone chips on the front quarter panels and windshield frame were showing rust, so they were sanded, treated with rust reformer, and then painted.
Looking good!
