I came across a 2001 a Nissan Altima today that after it was washed and waxed by the owner looked like it was sanded on the roof with heavy sandpaper. I managed to polish it out to a shine but looking close the scratches are still there
I never took photos but PMd another Autopian who showed me exactly what I had. And he confirmed the paint eventually failed a few months later on a similar paint.
Thanks Marc.
Hoping you chime in on this with your previous findings as well.
I`m not looking for photos with the clear totally peeling off but would love for anyone to share any knowledge of how to better determine if a paint is near failure vs every day swirl or scratch marks.
I actually believe this answers why I`ve never been successful in removing swirls in my Mercury and will now just continue to coat without any compounding. I do lack experience, but this is the only vehicle I`ve never gotten results I wanted.
I hit the hood with my 21 (after the posted photos) and got awesome results but those swirls always remain.
