I have maybe...2 itty bitty spots also, just not on the roof, 1 on the door, one near the sideskirt. Anyone got any tips of trying to stop the rust?

Re: Paintwork Problem (DubVR6)

Can you be more specific? Is it little bubbles under the clear coat, or little bubbles under the base coat? As well are these little bubbles raised, or more of a little bubble that has been popped?

the bubbles are raised up, the water seems to be under the clear coat. If you push them with your finger nail you can see the water moving underneath...... It has been raining here for the last week, it seems as if the water has seepes in through the clear coat........

your clear coat is going. Only fix is to have it re painted.

You might be able to get away with not re-painting the base, but the clear will have to definately be re-done. Is this an OEM finish on your car we are talking about?
