the clear coat on my car is starting to bubble and peel. is there any way to fix it short of a new paint job?

Question

if not, is there a way to prevent it from getting worse? i've been washing and waxing it regularly, but the clear coat continues to get worse.

Answer 1

nope. The problem was that the surface had some dirt or grease or oil on it. Then it was painted over and now the paint did not adhere to the metal.

You have to go down to a good clean surface and repaint. good luck.

Answer 2

preparing a car for primer and paint is the key to a good paint job. first sand and prime, making it smoothe. 2nd remove all loose materials from surface with a tact cloth and a simple alcohol. temperature 70 degrees- 75 dregrees low humidity 55. spray paint on evenly. spray 2nd coat on, don't let paint dry between coates. give 15 min. spray a 3rd if needed.let dry 24- 36 hrs.

Answer 3

Someone will have a miracle cure. But the truth is, there is nothing you can do. Don't wax the paint underneath the clearcoat, it might hold on to the wax and look chalky.

Answer 4

that's why you should wax your car every 6 months with a clear coat finish so that doesn't happen but there is nothing you can do but repaint

uh oh you better get maaco
