Mercedes c300 MARS RED PAINT problems
Wondering if anyone here went through the process of getting their entire car repainted? Did they repaint bumpers as well?

I hope I never see it on my 2011... I got the car for a helluva deal from my brother, and its 47k miles have always been garaged, and has not seen snow since its first year. I ran the Carvana offer tool today, and they'll give me $2k more than I paid for it 4 months ago.

All - the white blotches can be remedied easily w/out need for repaint. Using a heat gun will dissipate / evaporate the moisture from below the clear coat. See the video for demonstration. This was done on my 2011 GLK350 and the clear coat was perfect afterwards with no recurrence of the issue.
