    when i had talked to the guy i had asked about the paint he said it doesnt matter how well u take care of the car. amicheze is right in saying every color fades. And the guy i had talked to said all colors fade some fade faster than others and its just based on the colors. yeah brighter colors do fade faster He never said how much faster. So we all jus need to chill out we are getting pissed over nothin just paint.

          Once again, WAX is what prevents paint from getting damaged by the sun. Blocking UV rays is one of the primary purposes of a good wax. Plus, I would not even bother getting a vehicle repainted if it wasn't going to be stored in a garage, or at least kept under a car cover. For so many paint "experts" in this thread, you don't know much.

                  Holy shit you are retarded. THAT IS WHAT WAX IS FOR, NO NEED FOR A "BOOK ABOUT IT" IF YOU AREN'T A FUCKING MORON YOU KNOW THIS ALREADY (I know you were being sarcastic, but it just made you sound even more stupid). Yes, all paint fades, and as was said earlier in this thread because it is a bright neon it is more noticeable, but keeping a CLEAN (waxed) car will help slow that paint fade. When your parents payed for your car to be painted hot pink, so you could have more attention since based on your posts you are the kind of person that always needs to be the center of attention (even when everyone around you hates you), you went to a half-assed shop that did a half-assed paint job and it faded ten times quicker than it should have. When you questioned that shop, just to save their asses, they told you "oh uhhhh yea, umm neon fades faster than other paint, no matter how clean you keep it" and you fucking bought it. This is why I personally feel you are retarded. And Civtiva, why would you trust someone that did get their car painted a neon color at a shitty shop (for the sole purpose of getting attention) who knows NOTHING about cars or paint except for what this shitty shop told her.

                  Oh wait no, I'm way off base, it wasn't anything like that, it was a show car. As was asked by someone else earlier in this thread: what shows has your car been in again?

                        ...which is why she should've had it fixed by the body shop. Sorry, she loses again.

                          I'm not saying that at all. I was commenting on the fact that the body shop told her that no matter how you take care of your car it will fade. The only reason they told her that is because they did a half assed job and wanted to cover their asses. If the paint started fading in just days after it was painted then it was obviously a shitty paint job done with shitty paint. The fact is she got screwed, the shop lied to cover their asses, she bought the lie, and now she thinks she knows everything about car paint based on the lie.

                          Why isn't the orange integra fading? The orange/green civic hatch? The orange 1g DSM? The orange newer civic coupe? The green eclipse? Matt's green eclipse from grand forks? Josh's orange truck who might still be in grand forks? The millions of ricers around the world with neon paint? Because they aren't dumb enough to get fucked by a shop, then believe the shop's lies about neon fading faster than any other paint. Plain and simple, it is bullshit!

                            The average joe knows that a good wax is going to help prolong the life of there paint, this is pretty much a given. The reason neon paint fades so easily is because the pigment in it is very weak and fragile. Red paint has the weakest pigment of all the colors and Blaze orange, being a derivative of red is going to weakened further, hence, it will fade very fast compared to other colors. The best you can do it wax the hell out of it, keep it covered or garaged when your not driving or have the moolah to get it repainted when it fades. If you've ever seen those portable bilboards you can rent, that have the neon letters, the letters will be faded , somtimes to pint of almost looking white in as little as six months especially is they see alot of sun light.

                            Cyril Figgis: Call girl!
                            Sterling Archer: No Cyril! When they're dead they're just hookers!

                                        I dont want to get involved with this, but it needs to stop somewhere, leave the poor girl alone, she was just making a comment on her experiences, and it got taken totally out of hand. <u>WOW</u> is all I can say
