    Help with splotchy paint

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    This is my brother's new car. I detailed it this weekend and this is how it came out. the splotchiness was definitely there when he bought it. It's not that noticeable, but it bugs me. Is this a bad respray, or is it something I can fix?

    These pics are after one pass with Menzerna SP400 on a white lake country pad. One pass with Menzerna IP on orange pad. Then another pass with the SP400/white pad.

    Looks like it's been resprayed. Tiger Striping is a common error but that looks like a leopard pattern :)

    Been looking around multiple places and respect seems to be the consensus.

    He just bought the car so don't really know if it has ever been been repairs or why.
