Man that sucks. I would have to call him and see what he had to say. Then let him know your plan of action.

I have an update. He's asking me to come over and approve the final paint correction before he applies the ceramic coating. I have a little hope now that he's at least made some major improvements or he wouldn't be asking. Fingers crossed that I'm not totally screwed yet.

Well I have to say I’m pretty pleased with the results. He said they worked late into the night and all day today and have not yet put the coating on it. It looks night and day different. Here is a photo and video. Let me know what you guys think. The specs on the vehicle are just just some dust from the air that I could blow off.

Mate you need to get that under full sun or lights if it has to be.
Don’t accept until you do.

What shits me about this is that the bro doesn’t know how it happened yet he was fine with putting it outside and sending you a shot of how good it was.
Guy deliberately tried to pull one over you.

I agree, get some lights on there, even your cell phone flashlight will do.

Use the flashlight on your phone as a point source of light if you've got nothing else

Re: Feel like I was duped here with detailing and ceramic coating
I did go over it with my flashlight and it looks 1000% better than it did before. I didn’t notice any swirls or marks like I did before. Unfortunately it’s cloudy out and there is no direct sunlight. I think at this point I’m done with this guy either way. If it doesn’t come out the way i like it there is another member here who gave me his number and i will see if he can fix it. I’ll then claim a fraud charge on my CC.
I can’t thank you guys enough. If it wasn’t for this forum educating me on this stuff I probably would have just accepted what I got and let this guy get away with it. I do think it’s been corrected though but only time will tell I guess. Thank you guys again, this forum is awesome and I’m really glad I found it.

Re: Feel like I was duped here with detailing and ceramic coating
Nice one champ, thanks for sharing.
Keep a keen eye on that paint, get it out in sunlight as soon as you can and look for the tell tale signs of swirls, flaring, imperfections etc.
Just remember that for $1700, any reputable, skilled detailer would tell you what can be achieved and will go so far as to show you which scratches can’t be removed.
They also wouldn’t let that car leave the shop until it was as perfect as the clear coat will allow, even if an employee did the work.
