Rally Red Paint is Turning pink
Yes, I wax my car all the time. Never really did the door handles and mirrors, and they are starting to fade. Gave it a couple of waxes and it made a huge diff. You just need to maintain it.
my friends RR VIII is basically pink. I have a Red Eclipse and I parked next to him one day....my paint looked RED and his was definetly faded into a hot-pink. I hear that certain colors didnt come with a real clear coat.

So my question is, should i try to claim it under warranty... or not
I have previously attempted to but the service advisor shot me down before ti got to the manager.
He blames my sprinkler system, but i find it hard to believe that a car will turn pink after 1.5 years of ownership
My DADS honda accord being a 2000 has only been washed 3 times... and its still in perfect paint condition (just needed a detail)
Anyone else have the same problems?

my car is still ok and i clay it every 6 months and wax it more frequently, but if i had known, i bet it wouldnt have been to much to take a brand new RR and get a couple of coats of clear sprayed onto it right from the get go from a decent body shop.
