    Default rough texture after spray job please help

    Just paid a garage to srpay part of my back bumper and blend it into back panel around petrol cap... pick it up and he said its just come out of oven so dont wash it... but i was touching it and it feels rough like realy fine sandpaper even though it has a laquer coat... and if i shine a torch at it there is lots of small circles but not orange peel... have i got it back too soon and rain has done this? Can it be sorted my self with some product like t cut and elbow grease?? Please advise as i dont want to have it back in if i can help it, i feel abit cheeky, or will it need to go back for a fine sand down and buff? Thanks

    Id say its Overspray from the lacquer. May come off with polish, or may require machine polish or even flat sanding.

    You have paid for a service and if you are unhappy then you need to let them know... If you try and do the rectification yourself you could make matters worse if the paint surface wasn't keyed properly before they resprayed the affected area ..

    Take it back let them try and resolve the matter and then take it from there

    You pay for a professionally job, you should expect a professionally job. I had a Mk3 Cavi that went in for a rear end job(friend at work reversed into it). Whole car came out covered in overspray. I took it back to them to fix, its their problem not yours.

    be polite and take it back,
    for a start they cant afford there name slated, if you try and sort it ,and naff it, you dont have a leg to stand on,
    if they refuse or blab a load rubbish,
    block there doors and leave the keys in the office,
    and pick it up when they ring you,
    i wouldnt put up something i wasnt happy with

    So the rough maybe lack of buffing of overspray, wat about the small outlines of circles when you look really hard if you shine a light on it? I may just give them a call tommorow. Just wanted to see if i cud do it my self if needs be.
