I recently purchased my first Accord. It's a 2011 coupe in Taffeta white. 45k miles.

I purchased it from Honda North in Danvers Massachusetts.

Prior to purchase, they had repainted a section that had delaminated paint (along the c pillar on the passenger side).

On the day I picked it up, it looked fine, but I noticed more delaminated paint in the trunk and hood channels.

I specifically asked them if this delaminating paint was a problem area for Honda has I'd never heard of it. The answers I got ranged from a noncommital grunt to "no". and that I shouldn't worry about the delamination in the channels as it can't be seen.

My experience with delaminating paint is that it spreads.

As you can see in the photos below, it is spreading but not entirely visible from the outside.

What can be done about this to halt it?

Scuff and repaint? Or should I seek professional help?

 

Repainted the channel. Scuffed the exposed primer and the rolled edge at the corner and masked.

An airbrush is a wonderful tool.

The remaining paint was incorporated into the respray nicely. I'll give it a few weeks to cure and then I'll buff it smooth. But it being the corner, there isn't much to smooth as corners are great at hiding blended lines.
