Thin paint?

We just got done taking advantage of the unseasonably warm December to wash/polish/wax our TSX and I noticed that we seen to have an absurd number of small scratches all over the paint.

Has anyone else noticed that their TSX seems to be a magnet for little scratches? Or am I just hyper-sensitive since this is my baby?

Most of them came out well enough with polish and wax, but it seemed like there was a scratch on every panel!

Vale,

JohnS

polish?

I hope you mean some form of clear coat cleaner/wax. If not, that's probably the cause of your scratches.

If you think the Acura has thin paint, you should have seen my WRX... I know that the current eco-friendly paints are not as durable as before, but the WRX was a story in itself. Give thanks for the paint you have...
