Paint was a disgrace from the dealer like that! But, not now! Looks great, nice work!

Sadly, it seems like every vehicle I get that is "brand new" looks like it was washed with a Brillo pad.
The client always says..."It's brand new it doesn't need polishing...how much to slap the ceramic sauce on it?"
I ask them.."let's make an appointment for you to stop by so I can look at before I give you a quote."

This one only had a few hundred miles on it...Some dealerships are better than others...but they all do the same thing.
