As above its called orange peel, i would be asking why its only on that section and not all over the car though ?!

GTI-Ross:
Well its a few sections, the two rear panels on each side are the most noticeable. Bonnet and doors seems ok, maybe i have subconsciously  buffed them more with alight compond.

At least i know the term fo it now. Orange peel describes it to a tee.

Horatio:
I remember someone at WaxStock mentioning most european cars suffer orange peel, less so than the asian car market sue to different paint techniques. But saying that, my brother bought a new Nissan Juke last year and the orange peel was horrendous. He's had the car resprayed twice due to vandelism and is pretty much perfect   :stupid:  :rolleye:
