can someone help me out, i was removing the graphics on my car when some of it pulled the top paint off! there are a few places it has done this but what can i do?? i ideally want it resprayed but that isnt happenin for months , is there anything i can do as a 'quick fix' in the meantime coz im affraid more paint will start peeling around it

Mine did this too!

really? what did u do to sort it? i just applied some primer today , lucky as the weather has turned horrid!

Nothing yet, was removing the number board, the car has had a pretty crap blow-in/respray earlier in its life.

Need to get it to a spray shop really.
Top coat is removed but yellow paint colour is still there.

thats a bit gutting, im gunna get a price on a respray, same colour , fingers crossed its not silly money but there were a few more imperections paintwise i have noticed so i guess its just brought on the inevitable, means i got to pull my finger out and do it soon
hope u get urs sorted soon

That's unfortunate. Sadly, there is no quick fix I can think of. Best to get it to a bodyshop in the near future.

I suppose you could laquer it for now to protect the paint underneath until a permanent solution is done?

My mates Bug did the same, he stickered it up and drove around for just 2 weeks before diciding to remove them. Did it with kettle and hot water and it just pulled the paint off right down to bare metal on a few panels. He has just had a full respray to fix it.

not the news i wana hear haha im gunna take it down to my local mechanic as he does spraying n get him to cover the bits and then look into gettin a full respray or some new graphics, not massive or in ur face tho, small custom ones, like cusco ( maybe some nice halfords flames )
