Paint Issues

Mine has more paint defects than chips like dust under the yellow paint and debris in the clear coat, but I do have 3 chips on my roof that I noticed when the car had around 300-400 miles.

I have no idea how they got there and they may have been on the car when I bought it. Maybe they got there from the ride on the delivery truck. It's so overwhelming when you buy the car to see everything. Only after you start washing and waxing do you start to notice this stuff.

The clear coat scratches easy and the color coat is very thin. Actually the clear & color coats are very thin.

It looks like my car has 4 layers, a white coat, a black, the yellow color of the car, and the clear coat. If it get a tiny chip the chip will be black, a bigger chip will be white.

Does anyone know what the 1st white coat of paint is and the next thin black coat before the yellow color of the car??? Is one a powder coat primer & the other like a in between sealer???
