removing crap macco
the last owner of my car got it painted at macco. on the hood around the water sprayer, the paint is chipping bad, but the factory paint is under it. so my question is, what the easiest way to take all that paint off and end up with the previous paint?

No there is no way ! You can chip but there will be points in your car that they used bondo and then your f**cked ! Just do the whole thing don't miss a step and it will all be better in the end thats all ! OR you can go back to macco and tell them to do it over for you the right way and get the embasitors paint job for like a $189 and in about 6 month you'll still be back in this spot asking the same question !

the only reason its peelling off around the wiper nossels is cause they didn't sand it properly ! so no adheasion! it'll probably start peelling by your mouldings next and maybe your bumpers. So it'll have to be new paint! sorry n good luck and if yuo get it repainted make sure they sand it down to the original paint you never know what else macco missed that'll show up later
