go for a proper repair shop

my neighbour reversed into my car a few years back, (stupid btich), and had to have my hood, front bar replaced...the guy who came to paint looked pro, the quote was expensive...but her insurance paid for it anywayz...but what happened was, i started getting pin holes, n flakes within 2 years...

onsite paint repairers will never be as good as a decent panel shop, however they are not bad for the price..... and they do the job same day.

there is a company "the touch up guys" that i know operate in SE melb but they may have other franchises, i'm not sure

yeah i know that.
that would work for metal holes? i mean if i put it hard enough from 1 side. it would just pop out from another?

they are good for minor items such as scratches and scrapes on a lip or sumthing. But not good for entire panel
