Sorry for the hijak, but this is why I will never use clear coat again. Single stage only for me. My '92 Dakota and '98 Ram both had bad clear coat failure. Wondering when the '03 Durango and '11 Nitro will start. Is there a prevention measure? I don't have a garage (that can be parked in
)

whatever suits your fancy; poor quality materials and marginal prep will result in peeling no matter if you use bc/cc or if you use single stage. Use the same "cheapest available paint that lasts long enough to get out of warranty period" and the same "fastest prep possible...we got 2000 cars to paint today" prep methods, and your coveted single stage will peel too.
Point taken
I agree on the prep work for sure, and while I have never painted a car, (rattled canned a couple bikes) I know you get what you pay for in paint. Just seems the factory(s) really dropped the ball there for a while. Hopefully they have found the error of their ways
BTW, Good looking truck, John!
