Paint problems?

[Webb70]

Wow, being the "Paint Process Engineer" at the Oshawa plant that won the GoldMetal award for best paint appearance from JD Power, I thought I was pretty critical. When I got my truck I went over it with a fine tooth comb and was VERY IMPRESSED with the quality of the paint job. I actually measured the orange peel, gloss and DOI (distinction of image) on my truck and all were well over the GM specs we use at our plant. I did find one piece of dirt on the roof also, but a quick sand and polish (dirt was in the clearcoat)and it was gone.

The O spec with the paint "splayed" around it is a crater, caused by some type of contaminant. If it is covered with clearcoat, you could just cover it up with touch up paint and will not get any worse (rust-thru or delamination).
