I guess that it all depends on how good you want it to look when you're done and how long you want it to last. A "touch-up" is virtually a guarantee that it will be temporary.
I've had a bunch of older 911's and always resisted the urge to do a partial touch-up. I watched as friends would get into the touch-up thing and pretty soon they were throwing good money after bad.
There are usually lot's of other cosmetic stuff such as the light covers, reflectors, rubber mouldings, trim pieces, interior items such as the dash,seats, or the door pockets that are much more easy to deal with and with a better chance of ending up looking good. Unless you really have the right equipment and skill that it takes most body work can be a bear.
I personally have always stuck with wrenching and let the major body work be done by the pros.
