- It's not so much that they made a photochemically reactive paint on purpose. It took them several years to notice. They then did the R&D to fix the problem and released it as "non-photo-reactive" pa

- Do any of you paint experts on the list know anything about the yellowing of clear coat? My 94 Miata is white and the clear coat in some of the top surfaces is turning yellow. Looks like I have a two

- I've never seen this on a Maita before and there are many white ones here (including mine). I think your suspicion of a respray is probably correct. My guess is either a cheap clear, a brand mismatc

- The paint on my '96 front bumper is like that. I lose a little more every time I wash it. I think the peeling problem is probably the early "environmentally friendly" water based paints. I have a fee
