Body work and paint is one of those things where you get what you pay for. No one in their right mind is going to prep, sand, paint, wetsand, buff for 100 dollars and it coming out right. You would lose money. Like i said, i've been around those guys who do work at major dealerships. I know the process.

I can even see bad orange peel where he did not wetsand in that camera phone pic.
I'm not a perfectionist like you, so I suppose we have differing standards.

The OP said it wasn't great if you went "too close".

If he wanted a decent and quick + cheap job, he has done well.
