    I see some sort of brownish color on some areas of the car. It looks brownish and seems like its beneath the clear (not on the surface). Its on the bumper of the car, so my PosiTest Combo is not able to detect how much paint is left. I dont want to try polish/compound that area yet.

    Any advise/ideas?

    Thanks

    If it is underneath the clear coat there isn't much you can do, regrettably.

    You wouldn't happen to have a picture now would you?

    Man its hard to say by the pics, anything I would guess would be mere speculation.How deep are those scratches? I would be more concerned about them then the dots


    Got any Compound, 2000 grit paper? You might be able to kill 2 birds with 1 stone. It looks like he neads a re-paint anyway

    Thanks for the reply. Yes, I too would suggest a respray if the owner wants the car back in perfect condition.

    Im talking about that brownish color if you can see near the middle of the scratches/cracks

    Thanks

    That is from of the lack of color. It needs to be painted. I orderd a black truck from Ford and it was like that in the sun. I did not take it and had to wait another 8 weeks. It just didn't have enough paint on it and you could see through it like on the car in the picture. It just comes down to there isn't very much paint and you can see right through it.

    Do you mean the paint or the clearcoat? Thanks

    The colored paint. There just wasnt't enough paint applied so you can see through the color itself.
