Tech/Engineering - Automotive / Cars & Trucks
German term or phrase: anlackieren
Term appears in a text which deals with repairing vehicles.
The term "lackieren" is clear to me but what "anlackieren" means is still unclear to me. Is it something to do with how the paint is applied?

Thanks in advance

Sanding and repainting
Explanation:
A "Google" search game up with sanding and repainting a damaged section of a cars surface. The emphasis is on "section" as opposed to repainting a whole panel or car body.

Thanks, your answer fits quite well as we are definitely dealing with sections of existing paintwork. Not listed in any dictionaries I have looked at so far either - a very specific term.
