MB "Dull clear coat" on '92 W124?
A Mercdes-Benz approved collision center changed my rear bumper. They were supposed to color match and put clear coat, but it looks very dull.
See the picture. The new rear bumper is very dull, while the 17 years old lower moldings on the door is glossy.
The collision center says that they put clear, but they put "dull clear", in other words "semi-gloss clear", which is different from the usual clear. They said that Mercedes specifies usage of "dull clear" on lower molding on this model.
They also said that they can buff it and make it as glossy as usual clear if I want.
How is the painted area of the rear bumper of your W124?
