Paint Problem
Okay guys, can anyone tell me what this is and if anyone here else have it? It can't be clayed, buffed or waxed because some of the paint has chipped off. Now this is a close up picture and imagine this all over the hood, trunk and roof. Here's the full story to this issue.

Juding by the picture only, i looked like a rock chip, but on sencond thought, it could be a maufactring defect in which the car was not preped properly. I would call up acura client care services, tell them about the guy who said no for warrenty coverage. And i'll bet after a little saltt water touched the body, it will start to corrode, so call them ASAP.

Paint Film Surface Problems:
2. Clear coat bubbles - solvent pop, looks like little white spots and is caused by the paint topcoats trapping evaporating solvent gases during curing and drying (outgas) the pressure builds causing micro-explosions (pop) pushing up small blister in the wet paint or topcoat. Solvent pop will appear after the film is "skinned over" and when sanded will have pinholes
•Improper prep
•Wrong solvent or reducer
•Excessive film thickness
•Too heavy an undercoat can trap solvents
•Insufficient outgas (paint cure)
Correction- Repaint the base coat and apply a clear-coat to the affected panel
