Paint above rocker Panel

Based on the photo anyone have an idea what this is I drive a 2022 1794

Thank You

 

There’s PPF there. Looks just slightly bubbled like it’s stating to peel or not adhere

 

How would you fix this?

 

Mine is full of bubbles along all the edges too. Makes me wonder how long before I have to peel it all off

 

Attention to detail just does not seem to be there perhaps all manufaucturers are also suffering.

 

Would probably need to remove and reapply the ppf film. The dealership should be able to handle that for you.

 

Thank You appreciate the info I will call the dealer.

 

My 2012 has a similar texture for a few inches above the rocker panel. I believe it is by design as it is like bed liner material with color matching paint to provide protection from rocks and other road hazards.

 

Do not believe there is ppf in that area. I think it is just an anti -chip coating applied before paint. I do not think you could apply ppf over a textured surface like that. if there is ppf there than not surprised to see bubbling. (I have been known to be wrong before tho)

 

It’s a texture applied to the rocker panels. It’s been on all generations as far as I can remember.
I’ve owned each generation at it’s been on my past 3 generations.
Normal

 

It is a PPF. Had the same issue on 1794 Blueprint. Had it removed when I had ceramic coating applied.

 

Not talking about the texture. Talking about the clear film on top.

 

That is the PPF applied over the texture. It does not appear to adhere well to the texture. I had mine removed, much nicer without it, especially on a darker color paint.
