Peeling paint on 2006 Lexus RX 400h

As you’ve been told, it’s probably going to be expensive to fix at this point. Going forward with your next car – or a repainted version of this car — suggest to

  • keep it parked out of direct sun when possible
  • rinse it off with a garden hose once a week to remove dust
  • wash w/soap and warm water, but only when necessary as that also tends to remove the wax
  • apply new wax twice a year, spring and fall

No harm to check w/your dealership to see if there’s a customer interest or recall bulletin on the paint job.
