Wet sand it or bail???

Nope.

I'd walk away from that one, and I LOVE correcting extremely hammered paint.

Bail

Depends on if you want the challenge over $$

If I had the time and wasn't rushed, I'd like it as a challenge.
Definitely document what you did/materials used and of course....TIME takin!

post up some before and afters if you decide to do it....

As an after thought...what would happen if you sprayed WD-40 on it(cool/shadows)...let it soak to soften it up an bit and then hit it again with 05954

Do you have a paint thickness gauge?

Hard to tell from the picture, but given that you're in the land of the beating sun (and you mention it's hood and roof), I'd be worried about clearcoat failure. Either that that's what you're up against already, or that by way of removing those defects you've thinned the clear so much that failure is inevitable.

I've had 2 Tahoe's and when there fairly new/newer they are caked! I was thinking exactly what a few of you suggested. Challenge and learn. She wants to sell it for obvious reasons/Gas$
And it will take at least the cost of a new paint job off the top of what it's worth. So she really doesn't have allot of options. I will have her sign something if I am up front with her and she wants to proceed? I will tell her this is uncharted waters and I will do all the ground work in terms of whether or not it is even doable? I'm welcoming all suggestions and also BAIL or not?
Thanks as always!!!

On a side note. I wish her husband would just come clean with me. I would never tell her! But I have a pretty good idea after I saw a bucket of OTC car products in a bucket it the back. As soon as I saw MG BACK TO BLACK I pretty much new he thought that was a good polish for black cars! And he is a High school football coach, and I'm sure he went in to watch the game and down beers while it sat in sun most likely till the next day. So when he couldn't get it off, is when he went to the local car wash to hatch his alibi

Her husband sounds dumber than a bag of hammers.


Bail.......

He is certainly a TOOL!
If I did know for sure that's what he used, I might call Meguiar's and ask them?
