2015 XC60 Paint Issues

Post by AshtonMax »

Hi

I'm hoping someone can help. I've recently purchased an XC60 in onyx black. I've had the car approximately 3 months. In all the time I've had it there have been a number of marks appear and the paint on the drives side especially has an egg shell effect on it or it looks like there are ridges and crevices in it. Is this normal ?

Also every time I go out in it (which is every day) white marks appear, which I don't think are stone chips as I don't hear anything hitting it and when I wash it white lines appear. My washing process is very careful in that I use a pressure washer and a mitt rather than a sponge. I use autoglym products and I always put a wax coat on the car when I've finished washing it.

Is anyone else having similar problems and if so what can I do to rectify them ?

My fear is that when the car goes back in 4 years there won't be any paint left on it !!!
