2000 Sonata - clear coating breaking up?
I bought a used black 2000 Sonata just a couple weeks ago and noticed on
certain spots on the car that it looks like the clear coating is starting to
break up. Like a spider web kind of effect here and there on the car, some
small like a pinhead, some larger like the size of a quarter but its not
salt or dirt as it won't come off.
I took it to the dealer I bought it from and he said (1) its nothing to
worry about, it'll be fine. Bird poop or something he thought it was (2) its
not under warranty (which I knew) so they couldn't do anything about it.
Will this keep getting worse until the entire paint job starts to crack and
peel? What can I do about it aside from a new paint job, which is way out of
my budget right now.
Thanks

Keep some wax on it and it should be ok.
I would recommend the new Mequiars NXT stuff...
excellent product!
