VERY impressive results then. many many props to you! very few detailers would take the time to do a correction like that with an orbital, let alone achieve such results. again, from one detailer to another, very very nice work!

The washing and "detailing" it received before sitting was enough to do the damage. Mitsubishi paint is terrible in quality and hardness, doesnt take much to ruin it. I've seen 2007 Galants and Lancers with oxidation and peeling paint.

Thank you! The car really benefited from the job and the owner was shocked to see it when he picked it up.

I will not discuss my pricing on the forums, as I am not a vendor and enjoy sharing my work. Wish to cause no issues among the staff, however I will give you a general range of pricing for similar quality detailing. You WONT find this kind of work for under $300, infact $300 will probably be the starting point, and range to as high as $2k for a proper detail much like this one.

I've fixed plenty of $99.99 details unfortunately.
