This is strange, you should talk to the SC about this. Btw what touch up were u doing? Scratches and stone chips?



yup strange but true....i was supposed to touchup the front bumper as it scratched on it's chin..
now i am sad cos 3days ago i scratched my rear door...quite a deep scratch and dented summore smile_disapprove.gif ..
need to send to a reputable car spray shop in Cheras (very pricey) to do the job as my local 'painter' said Toyota cars especially Camry colours is not easy to match when respray..he said even UMW also cannot do a near perfect job..

Really sorry to hear about that, I can imagine your pain. Perhaps some UMW SC are better than others? Btw what price were you quoted to respray the door?
