I bought my first new car about a month ago. I found out car manufacturers basicaly put only 1 or 2 coats of paint on cars these days, so that if you even look at the car wrong, it will scratch and you’ll have to take it in for touch up.

So I’m gonna do that, but then also shell out for PPF on the doors, fenders, and hood. When I shouldn’t have to, and never worried about on my older cars.

    Your complaint shows a complete lack of respect for the manufacturer’s profit margins. They probably save a couple bucks per vehicle by skimping on materials optimizing paint dispersion.
