Paint Emergency

[Ozsum67]

I will have to get some pics of mine when its clean. it looks exactly like that. I have never had it uner the buffer. always by hand.

Probably just some poor workmanship on yours. He said his was garaged, so that takes some of the elements out of the equasion. Unless the garage used something in excess of 2-3000 rpms, you have to basically try to do damage with a real buffer. If they used a pad on a grinder, look out!!!

Thank everyone for all of their replies.

Still no one knows what happened to the paint, but the detailers have been giving me the run-around, so I suspect they may know what had happened.

- They told me that my car was waxed by hand - I told them that I watched them use the buffer.
- They told me that they did use the buffer, but only on the top of the hood (near the windshield) - I told them I watched them do the front of the hood twice, and the top of the hood once, after I showed them a large streak.
- They told me that they did not use rubbing compound ever - I walked into their garage and picked up a bottle of rubbing compound.
- When I asked to speak with their supervisor they told me that, he would not be in that day, that he would be in at 8:30am, and that he will not be in until 2:00pm that afternoon. When I should up at 2:00pm, I was told that he had been there all day since 6:00am and had just left a few minutes ago.

Monday I'm getting some quotes from a few paint and body shops.

Thanks again for everyone's help and suggestions.
