no idea bro, i suggest to bring your car to them para ma-evaluate nila. depende kasi yan sa condition ng paint mo at anong process ang gamitin nila para sa paint correction.

*crosswind: As long as the problem is ON the paint surface only, that can be corrected without repainting the panel.

If you can, take a close-up photo using your camera's macro mode. Try it with or without flash, whichever gives the better result.

* red_one here's a clearer photo can you identity if it's faded/oxidated/etched watermarks?

fading and oxidation will affect the entire panel (since the whole panel is exposed to the sun) and not just isolated spots. it looks like water/acid etching to me. is the surface smooth or rough on that spot?

Thanks
the paint is rough
I have been noticing it for at least a year
parang nagiging visble every time
ngayon parang lumalaki na


BTW yung watermarks parang water droplets lang sa paint(mayroon sa roof)

Type I Water Spots are mineral deposits sitting on top of the surface.
Type II Water Spots are actually holes or etching that are in the paint.

Type I Water Spots, or mineral deposits bonded to the surface can be removed using detailing clay while Type II Water Spots, or etchings which are below the surface must be removed using a compound or polish because you have to remove a little paint surrounding the etching to level the surface.

Did you avail of the Optiguard program, i.e. 1 detailing session + 3 maintenance session (every 3 months)? yes, you can use Spray Wax (NanoGlos) and Quick Detailer (NanoSliq) in between maintenance sessions. use them as often as you want.

If meron kang materials and free time, you can DIY. If wala, bring it to a detailing shop and then watch how they do it.

Price depends on vehicle size and may vary from shop to shop. For reference only:

Claying Service
S = P250
M = P300
L = P400
XL = P500

Polishing Service
S = P750
M = P900
L = P1100
XL = P1200

Full Exterior Detailing (Stage 2/Stage 3)
S = P2300/P2500
M = P2600/P2800
L = P3200/P3500
XL = P3700/P4000

Stage 2: Premium wash, paint claying, tar removal, degriming, polish, paint protection
Stage 3: Premium wash, paint claying, tar removal, degriming, compound, polish, paint protection

how old is the car? if that's a brand new car, then it's bad paint job. bring it back to the dealer. brand new car should have perfect, consistent finish.

you can PM sir jmpet baka meron pa siya. for me, wala naman kaso kahit nailipat sa aftermarket bottles, ang importante yung laman from orig bottle ililipat mo pa rin naman yan sa ibang bottle depende sa dilution mo. like mine from orig bottle, inililipat ko pa ulit sa 3 aftermarket bottles depende sa dilution at gamit. isang pang ONR regular wash, ONR clay lube at ONR quick detailer. I-label mo lang ng maayos para hindi ka malito.
