Ang GANDA ng Mazda 6 2.3!!!

at least its only evident on angles that reflect light..still its a 1.3M+ car with an imperfect factory paint job, not good..

not a scratch or damage, but the texture appears rough (but smooth to the touch), like the peel/skin of an orange. this happens when the painting isn't done as perfectly as it could be. it can't be "smoothened" by waxing or rubbing since it's the base coat that's not glassy smooth... while the clear top coat is smooth.

so its all over the car? does it just appear that way on a certain angle and looks okay on another? there was a report the other day Mazda change the way they paint their cars to reduce environmental waste/effect. dunno if this could be affecting that. BTW, nice sharp photo. what cam gamit mo?

it's just most noticeable on that trunk panel, in other places the paint's fine. i'm guessing that trunk panel is a different material (like aluminum?) than the other panels?

thanks, Olympus C-5060WZ hehe

HHHM, but those things are dipped in paint bath or painted by robotic arms? anyway i don't think its enough to turn-off people fm. buying a truly good product. its Olympus 5MP camera, the office camera is also fm. the same make but it didn't take pix as sharp as that. siguro na laspag and still amazed by my Canon A40 (+3years old) and looking for a replacement. regards.

AFAIK OEM Paints on most cars have orange peel (except ofcourse for the high end variants), yup its a paint imperfection but I don't think its anything to loose sleep over. Imagine how many man hours will it require to sand down and buff after every step of the painting process... it will raise the car's SRP significantly. So in a way, its a cost cutting process, you want a mirror finish have it repainted.

no, but it's more evident here than in most others (because of the location). i usually see orange peel on other cars in the bumpers and in other plastic parts. but no, it's not worth losing sleep over nga hehe.

IMO, orange peel is more evident on bumpers because of the prep/painting process (or lackoff). Most OEM clearcoat finishes have some sort of orange peel, it may vary depending on how long you buff/sand the surface... more time you put in it the less the orange peel.

OT: mbt btw ganda ng camera mo, magkano bili mo niyan hehehe... kita kita yung Orange Peel, usually makikita lang yan at an angle under flourescent light.
