I had a customer bring me a Buick that had hit some parking structures in a parking garage. It had scuffs and paint transfer. He thought it would need to go to the body shop, but asked if I could give it a shot first. I thought I would go ahead and do a write up and maybe somebody will save...

I saw a guy wiping his car down with a sponge. When he got to the wheels, he took his paint sponge and used it to cushion his knee on the concrete. Then he stood up, picked up his sponge, and without rinsing it, started wiping his paint. I saw a 1 bucket wash with Mr Clean dish soap and a...
