All paint will oxidise eventually, not just Cellulose, you only have to look at solid coloured E30's, they would most likeley have come from the factory painted in Acrylic, look at some Corsas too even 5 year old ones, some of them have started to oxidise. I think what we have here is a classic case of a little knowlege being dangerous. Have you recently had a repair made with Cellulose, it would be very unusual for a bodyshop to use it. I would personally treat it as you would any other paint, it all needs protecting and cleaning.
