This thread came up on GXOR and wanted to find out how many here are affected by oxidized spoilers. Affected GXOR member had a Peridot Mica spoiler repainted. I have seen a couple but frankly hadn't heard about this being widespread. Report your years and colors. Spoiler on my Fire Agate Pearl is in perfect shape paint-wise but has spent considerable time in the garage.

It may not hurt to open a case with Lexus to make them aware of this issue.

There is a campaign on the GX 470s related to Blizzard Pearl paint peeling. I know not the same as oxidation but paint related.

Clearly something is going on there. Dealer repainted or local shop?
 
Is it oxidized or is the clear coat peeling?
That's why we got rid of both our Landcruisers, the clear coat on both was peeling all over. They were both River Rock Mica Green, which if all the clear coat was off, the matte green actually looks pretty good!
But back to my point, I did a lot of research on how to repair peeling clear coat and the only real option is just repaint.
