Factory Paint Process?

I couldnt remember the name of the henna red so yeah your will fade badly unless you clearcoat it then it will slow it down

Gladly enough mine isn't faded really at all and no clearcoat, original paint. I guess I am a lucky one

Yes you are lucky I have seen them pretty faded before luckily though the paint if it is still factory they have a better chance of buffing out and looking good for awhile.

Im a painter. Solvent pop is usually from pounding the paint on and baking it to fast. The solvents don't properly evaporate and it creates tiny little bubbles. Reds darken as they dry. If he didn't bake your spoiler it may be dry to the touch but not internally. We use Dupont's Chromapremier line at my shop and I love the single stage. It lays out nice and has a depth that basecoat/clear doesn't. A lot of show cars that are solid colors are single stage because it's also thick, so you can put lots of coats on and sand the hell out of it and then buff it. If you take care of single stage (wax it) it will last as long as clearcoat.
