i took it to a small dealership, and they blamed me, or the enviroment, for eating through the paint.
I have owned 1 american and 3 different japanese makes of cars and motorcycles, this has never happened!
I do park my car outside, but I highly doubt the sun could do this in 16 month.
Anyone experienced this with their Z? Any suggestions about how i should deal with this with the dealership?
thanks in advance |
That looks like etching from a bird bomb, because the acid in the bird bomb has started to eat through your clear coat. Have you ever clayed, polished and waxed or sealed (or possibly both, i like to do both when i do a full paint correction  ) your 370Z before? Car manufacturers are using water based paints now, and thinner clear coats because of environmental concerns.
