Paint finish on Mk7 R's

(1/4) > >>

S2 Ant:
Have looked at a couple of these now and have to say I'm very disappointed with the paint finish on these cars... The orange peel look of the paint is terrible!

Are they all this bad?

I'm wondering if its something that a detailer could resolve but i'm probably right in thinking that the colour coat is poor and then lacquered over so it is how it is...

Has anyone else noticed this?

white91:
It would require wet sanding to sort it

I too have heard a few people complaining about the paint on mk7's....not so good

GrayMK5GTI:
There's been a few complaints on R-OC, although it seems pretty much confined to Lapiz Blue.

Seemed to be worse when the mk7 first came out, there doesn't seem to be as many issues on later cars

Degudodger:
Reflex Silver here, no issue with the paint finish :)
