I'm not sure what 2 pack is but 2k means 2 component. The primer and the hardener. Same thing with paint. If the paint/clear is in good shape then you can scuff and respray.

Check out SWRNC on YouTube. He's a good resource, he also has a channel called diyautoachool.
Also check out the refinish network and collision hub.

I also bought a few books off Amazon on how to repaint your car. I'll go track them down and post some links for you

Sand it smooth (use a block to protect the edge of the flat fender rim), apply filler if needed (then sand again), then prime, then paint. I can go into WAY more detail if you like, I rattlecanned my old Suburban to fix similar damage and had decent success.

This is a great source for auto paint: https://www.automotivetouchup.com/

They can match your paint code, and provide paint in spray cans or mixed to use with an air sprayer.

EDIT: Pick up a copy of The Haynes Automotive Body Repair & Painting Manual. It's excellent, and only $20!
