Maybe that's the problem? I've never waxed a white car in my life...I can't explain the red one though...
No, once the clear starts to go, there's no stopping it. Except for just stripping and redoing the whole flat...even spot painting it, it'll come back around the repair eventually...
My sister had a '88 Baretta that peeled all around the car BELOW the pinstripes when it got old...I thought that was odd so I asked my friend about it...
He said the reason was, it was one that had the problem with peeling paint on the flats when it was newer. GM was obligated to strip and repaint them under the finish warrantee, but some dealers cut time and made money by only stripping them down to the pinstripe line, then spraying the top half of the car, blending to the bottom, buff it all out, and restripe, and they looked like the whole car was fresh paint, the dealers billed the General for a whole job that they didn't do, and the paint began to peel off below the pinstripe line years later, when they were well out of warrantee...
