Pics? and translation lol? sounds like fish-eyes aka contamination or solvant popping, most likely fish eyes though, which sucks because you pretty much have to start over from scratch to get rid of them.

A fisheye will look like a small moon crater and is caused by a silicone contaminate in or on the surface of even in the air when the paint is sprayed for that matter. WD40 is a source of this problem. A solvent pop problem looks like a buch of little holes in the surface of the paint. A solvent pop will be about the size of the end of a needle and happens when the paint skins over with the solvent(or paint thinner) still trapped underneath. Causes the paint skin to have a small hole in it when the sovent comes out. Hope that helps.

it might be able to be buffed out. if it has happened twice i would say there is a seriously cleanliness problem wherever he is painting at or something. (fisheyes) but if its solvent pop, there is are multiple causes and hard to pinpoint. Need pix

Im going to guess fish eyes for sure, I just painted my SS wing for my Z in my dirty as **** including oil all over the floor from a jack leaking. I got two fish eyes and after i cut and buffed it they had white spots in the middle from the buffing compound.
