paint orange peeled

[Clutch]

i got a guy from work who does body work paint a fender for me and when i got it back i look and its oranged peeled. looks like crap paint feels smooth but when u look at it it looks like the skin of an orange.

anyways just wondering if theres anything you can do to remove that or should i just wait till monday and ***** at him to paint it again for free and right this time.

Beat him with it, that will teach him, or just rub his nose in it.

it's under the clear, he should of sanded the base coat befor applying the clear. orange peel is on alot of cars from factory, it sucks but it happens.

don't ***** at him, tell him your not happy with the finnal product and ask him to fix it.respect goes a long way, but if ti happened to me i'd rip his head off but i'm an ashole. but like i said ask him pollitly to fix it cause your not happy with the way it looks.

If it were to me. First go to your backyard and try to find a 2 by 4 go to the paintshop on monday and beat the shit out of him with it. Than ask him to repaint it or you'll get a ****ing 4 by 4.

if it isn't clearcoated, wet sand it with some 1200-1500 grit sand paper.

i wouldnt try anything yourself quite yet. take it back and show them. it might be a simple fix for them that could b a disaster for you. and if it gets messed up they wont take it back seeing that you did it. but remember to be nice at first, but if that doesnt work then ***** your head off

i work construction so theres plenty of deadly objects just laying around plus i know how to drive an excavator so if he dosnt redo it i can pick up his truck and throw it in the air and see what happens. lol

the fender i gave him was brand new from nappa already had primer on it so i think he just threw on a coat of paint and didnt prep it at all hopeing i wouldnt notice.

I own a body shop, if its clear coated and has orange peel thats an easy fix, he can have that fender looking like class in less than 30mins. Tell him he needs to wetsand and buff the fender, usually this is caused due to the incompetence of the painter

unless the problem is in the base coat.
