It looked OK but was, it seems, bad paint because it didn`t hold up to cleaning. Either the previous owner or the dealer from whom I bought it, must have put touchup paint on the door edge. They aren`t paint rubs, they`re primer showing through. To my surprise, the cloth had red on it and the white spots grew. After posting here and reading the replies, I tried wiping with a mild cleaner. So I had a paint correction and ceramic coating done. The previous owner was none too kind to the paint. This is one of the reasons when I get a clear bra applied to my personal vehicles, I always have the Installer apply a thin strip around all door edges. In decades of doing this I have never run across any Door edge that needed any more than a quick, extremely light pass with the machine using nothing aggressive and it was good. In any event, in my experience, the amount of your Coating on the edge is so little, that as long as you are careful how you remove it, the edge will not be impacted by possibly not having a tiny bit of the Coating gone. Like when someone with a white car backs into your black car and leaves a big white paint transfer on your bumper. Sometimes, it has to be polished off or compounded off, depending on how hard the "rub" was. If I was doing this, I would of course, try some mild cleaning agent first. Sometimes, in cases like this, the paint is just stuck on top and can be removed with some solvent and a sharp pointed Q-tip. I can`t really tell from the picture so I am assuming that the door was opened, and the edge hit the white car, and paint was transferred. If this is on a door - edge - only, there is very little paint on all edges and of course, very little of the Coating on that edge. Is the Coating completely - Cured - ? This is different from Dry.
