Re: 2006 Sonata V-6 Paint Problem
If you want to place the blame for the thin paint check the VOC
requirements the gov't passed. It's like a lot of things we are
getting done to "protect" us.

Re: 2006 Sonata V-6 Paint Problem
Let's see: color match, orangepeel, tape lines, shiny areas that were
formerly dull, etc. I see many cars that were repaired. On most, it's
not obvious unless you're looking. But if you're looking, you can almost
always tell.
As far as the paint being the same quality as the (properly done) factory
job, I don't buy that, either. In general, factory paint jobs apply a
much thicker coat and use better adherence methods than a body shop can
attain. That's not to say that you can't get a very good paint job, just
that it won't be the same as factory.

I guess it is just in my blood to always be looking. :-) I can usually
tell when a car has been repainted when I'm 30 feet away. Occasionally
I have to get closer and look for the signs you mention above. However,
the depth of the paint often just doesn't look the same as a factory
paint application. I can't explain it, it just looks different.

And many factory paint shops use electrostatic added paint application
which helps get paint in the nooks and crannies much better than most
aftermarket paint shops. There are probably some that use such
techniques, but I haven't come across one locally yet. And many car
makers use painting robots extensively. Few humans can match the
consistency of a robot for things like paint application, welding and
adhesive application. Some of the top custom painters and pinstripers
can, but not the average painter you find in middle America. Even most
custom painters depend on finish sanding, polishing and buffing to get a
shine that most factories get from the application alone.
Watch some of the custom car building shows on TV. They generally sand
off half of the paint they apply.

Re: 2006 Sonata V-6 Paint Problem
In the auto factory that I worked in, we had a robot that buffed the vehicle
after final paint. It used some pretty abrasive compounds to get the final
clear finish.

Which factory was that? I don't think I've ever seen any post finishing
in a modern auto plant, at least other than on a rework line.

Re: 2006 Sonata V-6 Paint Problem
This is good! The dealer should be fighting Hyundai to satisfy his
customer. I will be a 3 time owner if I trade in my 2002, but the 2007
Sante Fe looks like a Dodge Ram Truck with its blown out front. It is
wider than my 2002 so I fear it won't fit in our 1940 garage. But I
love my Sante Fe, I take very good care of him, 2006 Sante Fes are SOLD
OUT at my Dealer & none to trade for. So that $8,000 credit is gone.
So husband agrees we wait til 2008 to see what they put out there.

Re: 2006 Sonata V-6 Paint Problem
Our dealer has had many Sonatas returned for peeling paint & all have
been repainted at no cost to them. They got free rentals too! This is
a great dealer!!!! N Olmsted OH

Re: 2006 Sonata V-6 Paint Problem
My dealer told me that this is not a "problem", this is absolutely normal as
they put "silicone" (??) to prevent water infiltration. It is not supposed
to be the paint bubbling, but the "silicone" joint that we see. here is the

As I said in a previous post, I will show this to an independent body shop
expert and go back to my hyundai dealer with the report. I took lot of pics,
and asjked Hyundai to track this in their system too.
