What happened to this car's paint work? This typical family saloon was parked in the open carpark just like the rest of the cars while there was a upgrading project going on in the area. The flats around the area were receiving new coats of paint to last them for another couple of years. (I shall not discuss on how the paint get to the car's paint work as i was not there.)When the owners discover the horror done on their car, they tried to remove the dried paint by using damp cloth/ tissue papers to wipe/ rub the paint spots. The results of the paint spots removal were not ok as the intense focus spot rubbing actions had created deep scratches on the paint work which we termed as RDS. With the use of strong lighting, pockets of RDS were 'lite up' and they are over the entire paint work.
The car was brought in for consultation and after assessing the conditions of the paint work, we decided to remove the rest of the remaining paint spots and correct the damages done. Hope the RDS were not too deep, else we may need a proper paint job on the car.
The roof line area after removing the paint spots (Above picture). Not in good condition either, IMO.
A good 6 hours were spent on the paint correction work around the car. Total down time was close to 9 hours to restore the condition of the car's paint work as much as possible.
Here are the rest of the pictures from this paint correction cum restoration job. This Scenic is definitely better off right now than it was 10 hours ago.
If you see that there's a painting work going on in your area, be caution of the paint spotting problem. Thank you for viewing.
