Orange peel paint on new cars?

[acemastr]

My Subaru has pretty bad orange peel, and terribly thin paint. To get it corrected is going to be an expense, then I'd also have thinner paint afterwards.

I'm having my Ford Capri painted next year and if it comes back with a modern factory quality finish they can re-do it! I was following a 14 plate Volvo the other day and the orange peel on the tailgate was ridiculous.

It's bad when I can get a better finish with rattle cans.

Hope its better than the original Ford job. My father had a brand new 2 litre metallic green Capri where the paint faded to nothing about an inch from the vinyl roof trim.

BMW paint is way below what I would expect off a premium car, but if people dont moan, they will continue to produce poo paintwork.

The new Minis have had issues with poor paint work, Fritz needs to sort it out!!!!!1

Is Fritz the painter at the Mini factory in Oxford?

Some BMWs look like they've been finished with hammerite

I don't know what the ford job was like as this will be what I reckon is it's 4th paint job.
