Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I just got my car back from accident being repaired, and the paint on the front (hood, fenders, bumper) is all holographic. I know the body shop did some rubbing to try to get the texture just right, but obviously this swirling and holographic stuff needs correction. I plan to just have a professional detailer take it from here. Should I have them work on it before the paint cures, or wait until after its cured?
Don't touch anything. Bring it back to the body shop and make them fix it. If you start messing with it and it is a problem within the paint that can't be fixed, the fingerpointing will leave you with nowhere to turn!
I just got mine back with a new fender plus blending into the door and hood. I can't tell it was ever done. Take it back!
There is another way to preserve your car as well as it was 1st day. Wait for a month, and the paintwork will be more settled. After that , get your car polished in a complete proccess. All the panels will be with same brilliance and same thickness. Look at the pics shown in this post (the text is spanish) but you can see the result http://soloporsche.com/showthread.php?t=245
The swirling is a bad sign as this might be the results of a person buffing the car out that does not know what they are doing. Typically after paint you will see what is called orange peel in the clear coat. Small bumps like the skin of an orange. To get this out the paint is wet sanded and then buffed out to a shine. On a black car this is a very tedious process. You can work the clear coat only so long and then it gets too thin. Take it back and make sure the guy that worked on it the first time knows what he is doing or ask for someone else. Starting over is not the best solution as layers of paint equal more prone to chipping. Good luck.
What you're describing sounds like Rotary holograms left from someone who is not highly skilled with a rotary polisher. In all honesty this isn't something they're going to get better at overnight and I wouldn't trust taking it back to the same body shop as what you'll likely end up with is them going back over the paint and creating more holograming and removing more of the clear in the process. Search over on www.autopia.org and you should be able to find a trusted professional detailer in your arear that will be able to correct this for you and make the car look brand new. Andy
I just got mine back after having the front bumper and hood partially repainted. Mine is a wierd metallic color and it looks perfect. If you take it elsewhere, you have no recourse with the body shop. It is their responsibility....get them to fix it. Good luck.
