Happened upon an old Mercedes in great shape except some minor cracking of the original single stage white paint.
The paint shines and beads nicely. Only some horizontal surfaces show it.
It's not my car but I may consider buying it in the future.
The car is garage kept currently so moisture is not an issue. But does this sort of cracking lead to failure of primer and rust?
Ive heard tales of heating the paint under a buffing machine to "melt it" as a repair, but have never seen proof of that. Seems that a repair would need to be a strip and repaint.
Opinions?
