paint or clear coat smoothness?
Hi guys just a quick question. If you run your finger down the hood onto the bumper so from aluminum onto plastic should you be able to feel a difference in smoothness? As if the hood was freshly waxed but the bumper was not?
Friend of mine recently got his bumpers painted and noticed a very subtle difference in the feel. Color match looks perfect though. so wondering if the clear coat is messed up or if this is normal. Thanks |

Any roughness I felt after I picked up my resprayed car needed to be addressed with clay. If that doesn't help, then yes, may be messed up. |

wash it, clay it, polish it, seal it
problem fixed and solved. If they just did the repair on the bumper, they probably haven't waxed it, but instead used a filling polish. So if your hood is freshly waxed, and the bumper isn't, then there would be a difference. If you used a coating and maintenance spray on your car, and the bumper doesn't, then there will be a difference. Or it could be overspray as well. |
