What's actually happening
The clear lacquer coat that sits over your colour has failed and started to lift, usually after years of UV exposure. Once it goes, the colour underneath is exposed and deteriorates fast.
Why you can't just paint over it
Lacquer peel can't be polished or patched away — the failing clear coat has to be taken back to a sound surface and refinished, or it'll keep spreading.
The fix
We strip the affected area back, prepare it properly and refinish it, blended to match. On badly affected cars, a full respray is often the tidiest long-term answer. Bring yours down and we'll assess how far it's gone.
