as most of you know i painted my car about 3-4 months ago...... one day my car was a little dirty and before iwas going to wash it a friend of mine wrote clean me on the hood with his fingers... as u can write on a dusty car... for some reason that "clean me" stayed in my paint for a few days and i kept washing it but it wouldnt come out....i got it out by waxing it and it eventually came out.... another one of my friends not knowing this would happen wrote something on my rear bumper.... now this wont go away either... im curious to know why this is?? i dont know to much about paint so im starting to think the paint guy took me for my money and didnt complete a step... i would appreciate feedback, lol please keep all jokes to urself, i know its pretty funny but its starting to **** me off

 

just a thought but....maybe go back and talk to the guy who painted it?

 

I think he wants to but wants to know what hes talking about before he goes back to the paint guy.

 

This happened to a friend of mine and he was told that it was due to either cheap clear coat, clear coat not hardening enough, or the lear coat is oxidizing and whiping off small amounts at a time.

 

- sounds like no clearcoat

 

I'm with gocoho. I'd say no clear coat.

 

Either no clear coat or a very thin layer applied.
Talk to the painter, in dark colour application, I will use HS (High solid) clear coat.
3 coats and wet sanding using 2000 grid, then polish it with high speed orbital polisher and the last step is to use a W9000 foam pad to remove the swirl marks and you WILL not have the above problems again....

 

paint guy is using a single step paint system that when it dries it has a clear coat like substance that comes to the material "clear coat like substance" if u paid him more then $500 get ur money back... even mayko or w/e does better jobs than that

 

when your friends are writing on your car with their finger they are just scratching your paint. you notice the scratches because your car is dark. all you have to do is a) keep your car free of dust the best you can, b) get a few good coats of wax on there, and c) tell your friends to keep their grubby hands off your ride.

 

i know a few guys that are good with paint..... i spoke to them and the 3 of them said , it wasnt wetsanded and it needs to be and compounded and buffered as well.. they told me for the price i paid the job was done fine and its also a bad color i chose that scratches very easily...... i dunno guys, i appreciate ur feedback ima see what i have 2 do
