Met this older lady in person after our phone call discussing about fixing lots of very deep scratches on multiple panels on her 2012 toyota prius C. She wanted it to look as good as possible to prepare it for sale. After inspecting it in person and explaining to her some different options, we agreed on a 2 step paint correction and touch up on areas that could not be saved by wet sanding.

Thank you for taking the time to view my work.
 
Very nice results.

Does a Prius count as a SIV (special interest vehicle)? :)

This forum sees more Porsches and Ferraris posted in show and shine as opposed to Prius C’s.

That's because a Prius is more of an appliance than a SIV! I'm not knocking the Prius (plenty of others do that for me!), because I own one and it's an amazingly reliable and efficient car. It's just not the kind of car an enthusiast falls in love with.
 
Excellent work, I'm sure you just got her more money for her trade. I'm also shocked there weren't any bumper stickers on it. Prius are usually billboards for propaganda
 
Great scot! She's hit everything but the lottery!!!! Great work minimizing the unsightliness of all that damage so that she can try to get top dollar when selling!
 
Great save Limny. Definitely looks like it’s lived a hard life on the streets of The City. Can’t tell now after all your work.
 
Great work on that and you definitely added value for the owner when she sells/finds a buyer. It came out very nicely!
 
Interesting that someone would pay you to fix it up that much when the car is worth about $5K or $6K. How much value will a detailed car gain when it's that cheap to begin with? Probably less than what she paid you.

That may be true, but he gained valuable experience, and still got paid.

The value factor is on the client.

Definitely. The Detailer just did another job. The client probably wasted money unless this Prius has some sort of sentimental value.
 
great turnaround.
The paint in the non damaged areas looks perfect.

crystal clear headlight as well !
