Had my front end repainted last year.. got what I expected I guess for what I paid. Wondering if this 'orange peel' effect can be fixed at all? Here's what I'm talking about:




Kinda hard to see, look where the light cuts off at. Its not that big of a problem, you don't even really notice it, just kinda annoys me.

Here's what 145,000 miles get you (wax on grill, oops):



Suggestions?

 

The only way I know of to fix problems like that with the clearcoat is to wetsand and recoat. However, since the paint is a year old, I don't think that is an option.

 

You can atleast make it somewhat better by doing a little wetsanding and then compounding. Let me know the next time your in the cities and we can always give it a shot.
