There are a couple little ones on the passenger side C pillar. Those pretty much went away with the 2nd heat gun application.

The one I am worried about is a very very big area on the driver side rear quarter panel right above the wheel. The area is at least 6in X 6in and it doesn't seem to want to totally disappear.

In the sunlight at an angle, the area has the ghosting effect. If you look at the area with the sunlight reflecting directly in into the area, you can see some dark streaks where the splotches are.

If they did get the clearcoat too hot, would that area not be as reflective in the light?

I am getting GMS price, so getting a price drop would probably not be an option. It is either take it or leave it.

I am wondering if this is cause from what the TSB says as "moisture under the clearcoat" or if it is from improper baking at the factory?

I wouldn't be so worried about this if I was only keeping the car for a couple years, but I plan on keeping it for a long, long time. So you can see why I am worried about problems in the future with the 6in X 6in area.
