So I have a strange problem.
I got my car repainted and noticed that on the roof, on the driver`s side, the paint looks very cloudy and hazy.
It almost looks like someone took tape and sectioned off the drivers side and did something to it because right down the middle of the roof you can see a line where the other side looks perfect... no hazing at all.
Now what`s interesting is I just got a hood painted by the same shop (different car) and noticed the same type of hazing, but only around the sharper edges of the hood lines.
I`m assuming that they buffed the thing but didn`t buff it very much on the hood lines because the paint is thinner there.
The hazing is only noticeable by looking at it under the halogens or at certain angles.
I used my PC and the harshest I got was Optimum Compound and an orange light cutting pad. But it didn`t seem to make ANY difference on the roof. I didn`t do anything to the hood of the other car yet.
Should I step up to a more agressive pad or just leave well enough alone?
I figured some of you guys would have run into this and would know how to fix it.
Thanks.
