Paint defect on 05 G35, Clear coat failure

[batanatoly]

Hello everyone.
I have a problem with the paint on my 2005 G35 Coupe, there are circular dots, I put pictures. But, actually is much worse.

I went to а body shop, but they don’t know what exactly is, and what caused it. They told me that look like clear coat failure that may have formed from acid rain or any chemicals in the air. Also I let them try buffing and waxing the car, but that did not fix the problem, only made them not that visible. The Infiniti dealership told me that there is only one year warranty on the paint, and they don’t see anything wrong with it, that is a normal condition. Yhea..OK…

So, please if someone has seen something similar or knows what could be, let me know. I will be very happy to try something else to fix it instead of paying $6000 for repainting.

have you sent it to a detailer to try sanding? might be a better alternative to a costly repaint!

I dont kno what it is either, but it could be acid etching...like something was dropped on the paint and left there (unknowingly by you of course)

Do you park under a tree? Or near an airport?

Those look like tree sap spots, where tree sap has been left on the paint and has eaten into the clear coat. The same can happen with jet fuel. I wouldn't say this is a defect to the paint.
