What are some of the ways you paint a repair without it looking like a repair.
I don't want it to show.

  This looks like your Force, isn't it? Too bad. Looks like you already patched in some new silk span. From this point, lightly sand the original paint job back just a bit until you just get through the top coats. Fill and dope the new covering to get it to about the same point it was when you pianted it the first time. Carefully and light sand the last couple of coats of clear to where it blends in with the original dope. I have used small sanding blocks and sanding pads for this in the past. Mask off the original trim, and spay on a coat of the base coat color and see how it looks. Feather sand and touch up the edges. Spay another coat and check again. You may find out that the original color has faded a bit already, and still may not match up completely. If you are happy at that point, take off the mask over the trim, remask the color and respray the trim color. Just try to avoid any hard lines. If you were just repairing a hole, sand back the paint from the edge of the hole about 3/4". Tear a patch of silk span the size you need and dope in place around the edges. When dry, shrink the patch with alcohol. WHen dry,m start the dope layers to build back up, feather sanding around the edges to match. When it's to your liking, repaint the base coat color and trim. Work carefully and you can get it hardly noticeable or even un-noticeable. Extra stickers and decals can mis-direct  attention.
