My roof has peeled near the back, and looks to be fading/fogging in patches. A small peel spot on the boot lid, and some fogging along top of doors.
What's caused this, is it normal, and can it be prevented and fixed?
Mine's a 99 v6 coupe, and one of those metallic blues no-one seems to know the name of!
Cheers

Re: Paint fade and peel
Sounds like a bad respray to me. The laquer is what's peeling. I don't think you can do anything about it other than spraying the affected panels.
As for the colour, if it's light blue, it'll be Ariane Blue.
If it's a darker deep blue, it'll be Polaris
Mine, below, is Hyperion Blue but that colour wasn't available until 2001.
