You can see this on many low mileage unrestored Town Sedans where the original paint is invariably worn through on the hood but the body paint is often nearly intact. Clearly the body got more paint than the hood under this process.

Could this have been from the amount of heat generated by the engine to have had an effect on hood paint. More questions ...
