Someone backed on my front driverside fender and since the hood and facia had rock chips etc., I thought that best way to make the car look like new was to paint the hood, both fenders and front facia.
My buddy, who has a paintshop did the work and when I picked up the car, I could not believe my eyes.. Front was "greyish", looked like it had haze all over it.
After driving the car for few weeks the grey color really got under my nerves... So I decided to take it to a local paintshop. Yesterday I was supposed to pick up my SC and quess what?
It's grey again.. Less grey, but still has the damn haze in the paint.
Local paint supplier mixed the correct Lexus black paint (there is supposively 2 parts of black and 1 part of midnight blue in the 1994 black paint) He used a clearcoat on it. Could this clearcoat be the reason for the haze??? I read that the original paint does not have clearcoat until 2001....
This guy has painted cars 13 years and is puzzled what the problem is.
Can anyone here help us, I want my car back, preferrably in one color... :cries:
The picture is before the paintjob. Thats the way I want it...
Thanks, Lauri
