I mean it is much lighter, it looks like fog or very very light white under the clearcoat, it is smooth,there are no dents/cuts/rust,or any damage in the area.
The blue paint looks like it is covered with a 'fog' like you would get on your windshield in the morning whe nyou turn on the defroster. It wasnt there a day ago, the paint as I said is smooth, the clearcoat isnt peeling off or anything like that. And of course this has to happen on Friday at 6pm. So I cant go to Chevy till Monday at the earliest to see if they know what it is.
But does anyone know what it could be? Does anyone know if the paint is covered by a 5yr or 10yr warranty against rust or any issue that isnt caused by damage, or by me damaging it in anyway? Or maybe it has like a 100,000 mile warranty just on the paint. To maybe cover this being repainted if it is something that can be easily fixed. This is the original paint. (Or is my 2006 the last year that only had 5 years and 50K miles coverage of any sort, even on the paint?)
I dont get what this is. But it looks like 'fog' under the clearcoat,about the size of an egg right now. I dont know if it is spreading and maybe I didnt see it till it got this big, or if this just appeared today. Any ideas? This is going to drive me nuts till Monday, if I get to Chevy then.
