Hi guys well im pretty new to this hobby and have some questions. Firstly id like to know how to prep the car for painting as i went over the car with 600 sandpaper before i primered it and then after i put the colour on i see it maked like a defect(there is like dust under the paint and a blackish mark. So i would like to know if i sand it down again and wash it off and redo the primer and paint would it work?

RudyOnWheelsSome people get crazy and use 2000 grit on up to 15,000 grit polishing pads
Those are for polishing paint, not prep prior to painting. if you used 8000 grit or finer before primer it wouldn't stick, due to no key or teeth and will peel off (especially if using masking tape).

Dust usually shows up as a high line under the paint.
you can do touch up like they would do for a small scrape in a body shop. Sand it back, if you can avoid going through the primer, you don't need to re-primer it and can just add a small touch up of base color.
I'd mask off the panel and repaint the whole panel.
