Painting has always been very intimate: every car owner tries to find “his master”, but not everyone succeeds. The trick is that painting cars involves a lot of work – leveling, fitting, filling, priming, painting, varnishing – and it can’t be cheap. And I want something for a “cap of crackers”! As a result, many masters, in order to please customers, went on tricks, which later “crawled out” and frightened customers. However, the low price always attracts, whatever one may say.

Today, when the prices of components have risen several times, the cost of restoring a single element has exceeded all reasonable and unreasonable limits. Many are looking for “cheaper”, and the workshops are accepted to “cheat” even for themselves on a new level. A simple example is a scratch. An experienced technician immediately sees whether it is possible to remedy the defect by means of polishing or whether the part needs to be painted. However, the customer often only hears “have to paint”. However, the dodger is easy enough to catch by hand.

The first way is time to work. If the specialist says so, they say, you pick it up tomorrow, then he won’t paint anything. At best we are talking about polishing, which removes the scratch, at worst – about direct deception. The affected part is skinned – casually and quickly – and then filled with varnish, in which a little paint is mixed for color. Then dried and polished. There is no question of any preparation, clogging and other “little things”: they matted and filled it with varnish. The problem is that in a month or two such a varnish will begin to peel off in pieces and whole pieces, and the part under it will rust.
