my guess is probably the last you want to rely on btw =] but i've seen similar when say clear coat failed and the sun faded out hte paint/or the metallic specs oxidized leaving a reddish brown hue...but I'm kind of curious to see what this is (we all love a good mystery) hope it's nothing serious
I doubt it? the burn theory was just the first thing that came out of my idiotic mouth lol sorry--again I should've left my lurker mode on in this case--I would probably wait to see what the smarter guys think
Sorry, without actually seeing the concern, and even then, I have my doubts that I can tell you.
If there were more of the "spots" in the area or other parts, I could go through some diagnoist's and maybe, just maybe, come up with some sort of answer.
I noticed the spot after I did a decon wash next to the Honda logo on the trunk lid. Did a little light polishing, but from what I could tell, it looked as if it was under the clear. I must say, I was a little worried because I thought it was something I did. The customer picked the car up yesterday evening and said " Oh yeah, that was there when I got it." At that point, we decided to let it be due to the low paint readings already. Another dealership mystery.
