Dig this, the next 3 cars I tested were on our local dealer lot and they all had 8.6 mils as well as the new GM SUV sitting next to them. My production date is 8/09 (9+mils) the others are new arrivals. There is a early production camaro running around town and as soon as I test it I will let you know. You also need to know I tested 6 different areas on each car and the Gill area was one of them. I have a email into our paint manufacture rep asking for input.
Can you get yours tested? Since yours is chipping and mine is not (yet) I am interested in that data. What color is yours? Production date? This goes for anybody reading. I need data!
Lots of other factors can effect adhesion. Water base paint is fairly new to the assembly line. Remember the last time they made a change and removed the lead? I repainted hundreds of peeling cars and trucks. This is a new car and a new paint technology so we are the test pilots. After I collect more data I will publish a new thread with findings and recommendations. Try to get yours tested and get back to me.
