It looks like residue from the buffing compound...
Can someone run a finger or a towel over the edges and confirm or dispute this....

YOU COULDN'T WIPE THAT OFF WITH 36 GRIT

IT WILL NEED TO BE STRIPPED TO BE FIXED RIGHT

Wow, for some person to say I painted that is beyond me. Horrible. In good hands now. Are you guys going with the same color?

No, it is getting a complete color change. I'll let Tony reveal the new color when he is ready.

I'm really hoping it's the hot pink we discussed, don't forget the lepard skin stripes.

I can see this thread going on and on and I have no complaints with that, that's for sure.
I, for one, am following this thread closely.
What a horrible job the previous builder/painter did before Pete and his guys got their hands on it. Just horrible.

Can't wait to see the new rendering and colors. Should look awesome!!!

There is no way that car was in his garage at home while he was working on it. That thing was left outside long enough to get the wierd looking stains in the clear and the start of a bees nest.
Now that the car is being pulled apart it looks alot worse.
I just get mad seeing this type of stuff.

Got to give it to Tony to stay optomistic thru his whole ordeal. I kept telling him to get his car back and that he wasn't going to get it right the second time. Tony just kept saying " he'll make it right and fix it."

Tony really trusted the guy and thought he was a friend.
He just didn't care about the details.

Thanks for clearing that up for me, I still trying to see some good out of all of this...
