why can they never just take that 30-60mins to finish a car off 
Car is ready..... so i went round!
Car is covered in dust etc.... paint is flat in places, orange peely in others. Not happy, so told him.....
He then spent the next 60mins buffing and polishing out the imperfections infront of me. They were so obvious he would have seen them if he looked.

Because the reality is that a lot of people either won't check or will be too dumb to mention anything.

Bodyshops are dusty places but surely they can spend the extra 10mins giving the car a quick wash and once over the work before the customer comes and picks their faults up
