Bodyshop wants 500 to paint hood and nose. They put some Turtle Wax Color Cure on the hood. Can you tell where it is? Clay bar is coming out to remove it. Is this a bad price?
CC failure. Look on the left side of hood. The white spots. I have tried just about everything. I have used Megs 83, 80 XMT 3. Nothing but a great shine.

So why did it fail?
2008 Acura MDX Sport white pearl (daily driver)
2009 BMW E70 X5 4.8i jet black (garage queen)
2013 BMW F25 X3 2.8 jet black (wife's car)
Good question. Car sits outside 24/7. More likely was the repaint on the hood was bad or botched. I see sanding marks all over. It was done before I bought it and before I knew about detailing.
Last year I noticed it after putting a clay bar on hood. Wonder if I took something off covering it up. Next time I buy used I'm taking my claybar with me.

LOL Great idea! I love it! I'm in a similar boat. Bought a used car before I learned so much from all the nice folks on this board. After taking the PC to my car, polish and wax, I now see hundreds of little chips all over the front. You can see a picture of it in my gallery. I swear they were not there before! They must have used some sort of filler? So now I don't know what to do either except take it to a body shop.
