Over time, the paint can be oxidizied by toxic chemicals in the air, or in the hard water, or acid rain. If your car isn't taken care of well enough, the paint can oxidize, making it fade and look flat. Milano Red is a color known for oxidizing over time if not properly taken care of.

You can cure it by using a "cutting agent" or cleaner wax to break through the oxidation, and then protect the paint by using a quality wax.
