[QUOTE="offroadkarter, post: 16300302, member: 79484"] No you're right, this is just a shitty situation and Ford is being a shit for not admitting to a clear and obvious problem. Honestly I'm fresh out of ideas, God speed to you sir. I am pretty sure all modern cars are painted with that low VOC water based paint, which is why the paint is so thin and chips easy (ala Ford). I've seen tons of 8th gen civics like you mention with clearcoat fade. I've never checked a honda, but my friends 2011 Infiniti M37X had between 3.6-3.9mils thick paint from the factory. By comparison, my fathers 2016 F150 measured between 4.5 - 5 and my mothers 2015 bmw x5 was 5-5.5 all around. I think the Japanese save a few dollars in paint application. [/QUOTE]
