    Always seal new parts

    [quote=”ryan999″ post=27303]It could be numerous things. It would be best to just allow the shop to fix it or take it to another shop you are comfortable with. If it doesn’t buff you will be into the door, no matter if you like it or not.

    I see no reason anyone would have sealed the whole fender and based it, but I can see if they cut through and just colored the whole thing.

    Bad buff job is possible. It would be the easiest fix, not sure if that is going to be it. That would be the first thing I tried.

    Could also be in the clear. Clear could have been close to out of pot-life when it was sprayed.

    Fact of the matter is you need to decide whether you can live with it or not. If not let someone qualified fix it however they need to and you will be happier. If you go in there and tell them they cant touch the door you will be more likely to be unhappy again. If you don’t feel comfortable taking it back to the previous shop then find another that you are comfortable with, tell them what you want and let them do their job, you will be happier in the end.

    I know if the job came in to me I would first buff it, if that didn’t work the only choice I would give would be to de-trim door and fender. Basecoat over fender and door area, blend, and clearcoat both panels. If they use a quality material the paint will be just as good or better than what came on the car.[/quote]

    Maybe during prep someone burned thru or there was stone chips from the road wheel and were afraid of having a dry edge from the sealer, either way i can see reason they sealed the complete fender, i have seen this before.

    Im gonna go out on a limb here, i think they sealed the whole fender with a # 7 VS and then they based it and the basecoat didnt achieve coverage which would give you that milkey look(bleedthru) Color may have been transparant or they reduced it too much.
    Either way the fender and maybe the door has to be rebased and than cleared, you said you asked them to paint just the front part of the fender and reclear the rest of the fender but really how do you know? maybe they thought that color would butt match fine and panel painted it. ????
