Question on Paint

Thanks! Seems what u guys might b saying that it's probably the paint quality or hardness of the clear coat(s). That's cool. On my Mustang I had to wetsand pretty much every vertical surface cuz the orange peel was so bad, but once I did that, it was fine. I was mostly worried about the paint actually oxidizing right away no matter how well you take care of it.

@Gunzero Magnetic Black. FTW!

I don't think the quality is bad, just not as good as it should be. You just got to watch out for any bird droppings or tree sap. A good wax every 4-6 months should just about remedy this. Clear bra the facia and you shouldn't have anything to worry about. You do get swirls easily though, but then again my car is black. Too bad they only used the healing paint tech on the 40th.
