I was at ford 4 weeks ago for my mrz car and he found a few flakes on the car (mostly boot) and he said they will spray the whole car bare metal regardless.. just shattered they dont do any plastics because her car has alot of scratches on the bumpers..2 months ago this started as a tiny flake Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/49022-ba-mkii-shockwave-paint-problems/page/11/#findComment-1061124 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grunta Member 5 Member For: 15y 6m 15d Posted 04/03/11 12:32 PM Share Posted 04/03/11 12:32 PM As I said on my earlier post I would let anyone I know with shockwave paint about this problem.It has paid off. A mate of mine at the pub has a 2005 xr6 and his paint started peeling and he was panicking.Told him about this forum, he took his car in and got the full respray.So thanks to this forum it has saved 2 people so far.Good work guysThanks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/49022-ba-mkii-shockwave-paint-problems/page/11/#findComment-1086195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
