what it looks like to me is that the previous owner had reapainted the door at one time becuz the whole ou line and insde where the strip was is a differnt color silver...and it only happensd to be on that one door.....so im thinkin on just getting the door re painted




You can always try wet sanding the area w/ warm soapy water & 1200 grit paper to knock the ridge down (use a sanding block)...then change to 2000 grit (wet) & then polish w/ a wheel & finish polish by hand.

Do that first if you are seriously considering paint. Silver paint will never match exactly & need to be blended into other panels to look right, since it's such a small area I'd try the sanding/polishing trick first.

thinner is a bad idea period.
