Yes dust on the paint within a few minutes of collecting, rain drops after washing which you can see lol.

lol no mate, I heard third person as don't really speak to him much anymore, but thought it pertinent to mention as it is a good one! Not sure on mileage, though

Gutted, genuinely gutted.

Please don't question the method of cleaning as I use all the right kit.

Have to take the car back now so he can look at it.

Not having a lot of luck, paint issues on the M5, cracked windscreen on the megane today and now this.

Jesus, what have you washed it with, a scouring pad?

Genuinely though, how can it be that bad for just a wash?!

Something's sure not right. Guess it's going to be a waiting game. Coatings have 100% been applied going by how the water sheets off.

Ant, having known someone who does this for a living in the past and on various cars (including a Black 225), the Megane paint is soft as f**k. Honestly, unbelievably so on some of them.

So this is caused by simply washing the car?

I'd also say that just because the coating has been applied and the water is sheeting off, doesn't mean it's fully cured properly. Needs to be in a heated room iirc.

Black gold is normally hard as f**k too as with most Renault paints.

Was in a heated room for four days :-( When he started the correction he commented a few times on how soft the paint was.

Well, that doesn't look so hard to me!


Bloody Renaults. Don't know what to suggest Ant TBH, see what he says :/
