Sticky Clear Coat??

Sticky Clear Coat??
Hey...I just ordered my rotary and was looking online for tips for my 2008 G35. I came across a thread about sticky clear coats on this model and how it's made life hard for a lot of detailers. Has anyone else had experience with this? Did all of the 08's come through with this paint issue?
TIA

No it wasn't all models, it was a batch from the factory where they wrapped the car for shipping before the paint was completely dry, which gave it a "sticky" clear coat.
Are you just going to dive right into your car with a rotary? Go to a bodyshop and see if you can pic up some scrap parts to work on, because you probably don't want to be using a rotary on your car if it's your first time, and definitely do not if you have the sticky clear coat.
Oh and btw, I vaguely remember someone saying they had more luck with a DA polisher. Don't quote me on that though. Search for yourself over at the forums on DetailingBliss.com if your not already there, great info and great people.
Good luck

Thanks for the note. I fully agree on the scrap panel. I already have a some panels lined up from a local body shop to experiment with. I also have a friend with a pretty old Mazda who is willing to be my irst attempt. I've been using a DA for years so I'm ready to try to move up.
Here's the thread about the sticky clear coat:
