  • Can this be taken care of?

    This is pictures from a 2002 Honda Accord I am looking at purchasing. These area's are what have been holding it up from selling, and I have a little experience in detailing but I wanted everyone elses professional opinion on whether or not I could take care of this on my own, or would it require a respray? Any help would be much appreciated.







    Thanks again for any help!

    I'm pretty sure the only way to correct that is a repaint.......

        I'll add a third to that, it needs repainting.

          Respray.

            Clearcoat failure. Respray is recommended.

                Repaint the panel

                I once put swirls in my paint just to see what it looked like.

                I don't always detail cars, but when I do, I prefer Meguiar's.
                Remove swirls my friends.

                  Looks like clear coat failure. Repaint only option.

                      Definately beyond saving, a respray is the ONLY way to fix that. Good luck with it!

                        Unfortuanetly, I would agree also.
