WTF now,

[Snoopy]

No cannot feel it but it got two coats of wax last week which I polished off in the garage. I noticed this when I first pulled the car out the garage since then. I was actually looking to polish off the bits I missed when in the garage. (why I was that low doc)  I actually spotted it when standing up just easier to show it face on.

Weird, looks like a warranty claim.....

to be fair I've never got down on my hands and knees to look.

well not at ya mk6 anyway . . . . . . . . .

is it just those panels or all over the car?

it looks like the clear base coat has reacted somehow with the clear coat like maybe it was to hot when painted or something?

if you can't feel it and if its the bad coat which is at fault then i doubt you could polish it out.



i would take it back to the dealership but at best they will want to repaint the dodgey panels which i know you wouldn't want





time for a part ex i reckon....

Just that panel and only the bottom half.

Wonder I it's Painted? I know alot of cars need minor paint done when new due to being damaged in transit.

I need to go see about the oil leak anyway so may ask their opinion.
I may get it pro detailed and see what can be done. There's a few marks I want doing.

I'd check it out with a paint thickness guage and see if it's any different to other panels.

It looks very odd for a new car

Try Pulman Durham. When I went in with peelin paint from the back bumper they said they would paint it no questions asked. Some dealers are funny with paint issues but they seemed pretty good.

That is who I was thinking of going to see but next week at the earliest as on sorting out my workshop lockup this week.
I'm told they have a paint thickness gauge but I would have to see the bloke during the week.
