Bubbling Clear Coat on Rear Wing
2 Attachment(s)
Hey guys, :wavey:
I have the stock wing and the clear coat has started to bubble pretty badly. Its only within the last month or so since I have noticed this. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to clean it up? Particularly, any advice on keeping it from getting any worse? I recently used some rubbing compound, polish, and wax on some scratches I had and it worked out well. Would a similar process help protect and mask my bubbling problem? All help is appreciated. :D: |
only true fix is to have it reclearcoated provided the paint isnt damaged.
|
Bubbling? Ive never heard of the clear coat bubbling before.
Can you snap a few pictures and post it here? |
i think hes talking about orange peel.
|
Added some pics, it seems that the actual paint is fine.. but the clear is starting to bubble and crack.. ideas besides having to re-clearcoat? Anything to slow the process? Prevent further damage?

Problem is getting worse with this weekends rain. Check out this new pic. Its starting to loook more like a protective coating than a clear coat. Its starting to just chip right off with no effort whatsoever. I would think a clear coat would have more sticking bite than this.
Any ideas? |
fix?
Did you ever find a fix for this? Mine has started doing something similar but the bubbles are smaller.
|
sand and paint.
|
damn dude! whoever painted that car did a shitty job. ive never seen clear coat do that on paint less than 20 years old. lol
|
I never found a cure to this problem, I will post the most recent pics I have of the wing tomorrow when I get a chance. I have since taken the wing off and I am plugging the trunk and de-badging it. Ill post pics of that in a month or two when its complete (Im doing it on my own)

I have an 04 RX8 AT, Nordic Mica green that bubbled up on top of the driver's rear quarter (next to the trunk) your right, its BS
