    No way to stop, nor would you want to. If it's lifting now, ad even if it were possible to fix one area - which it's not - the same issue is bound to crop up somewhere else. You're going to have to respray the bonnet, not the best news I know, but it's the only way to rectify it.

    A bonnet's a very large panel, and uses a lot of paint. There'll be a whole lot of prepwork too for anyone doing it to remove the lacquer and the basecoat that's on there. I'd say approx 400 would be a fair price, there's days of labour in it.
