It's a show truck...I'm about 99% sure it wasn't there before polishing. I know just about every single nick there is on it. There was a scratch right near where that spot is now that I was working on, so I'm sure it is something I cause. You're right though, a LOT of Dakotas suffer from clear coat peel. It seems to happen with the darker colors...black, deep amethyst (purple) being the top two I've seen. And in those cases it normally starts on the roof, bed rails and hood.
