2016 camaro ss paint clear coat bubbles
I have had my car since the end of march and I'm at 3100 miles as of now. I have taken it in a few times due to paint defects I noticed within a few days of owning it that the dealer had to buff out which is never a good thing for any new car and no owner wants to deal with. Now after a few months of multiple issues with the car I find small bubbles the slightly larger than the tip of a pen underneath my clear coat mostly located on the rear bumper and around the rear quarters. Its scary to see this so soon. My car is black and its not hard to notice a defect like this. Seems like the paint chips on these cars very easily compared to previous gm vehicles I've owned as well. Has anyone else noticed this issue on their black or dark colored camaros? Will post pics as soon as possible. Thanks folks.

If its really under the clear that is a huge issue. Id be back at the dealer.

Tough to see in pics because of the metallic paint. In between the 2 light reflections.
![]() Another one appears as a brown bubble in the center of this pic ![]() There's 3 like this one and a "patch" of a dozen smaller ones, just on the hood. There was only one just recently. I haven't checked anywhere else that well.

Try use a clay bar. Sometimes that can take care of the bumps and then youll know for sure if its really under the clear coat.

From the amber color it appears to have, that looks like tree sap or some kind of liquid that dried on the surface not a defect in the clear.

I'm pretty intimate with my paint hahaha! I felt it while inspecting for defects that need to be fixed before applying Optimum Gloss Coat.
