He's only showing you the horrible pictures 😂😂😂 Just can't!

The letter proves the "fish eyes" were caused because the Defendant pressured the technician to do a rush job. He most likely layered the paints/sealant before they were fully cured, causing rippling and the fish eye effect. Had he not had the tech doing 8 cars at once, the tech would have probably done a satisfactory job. The Defendant also claims he could have had the tech do the job right if the Plaintiff paid more. He was ALREADY paid, why should the Plaintiff have to pay more to have the job done correctly?

The plaintiff is a dang fool for convincing him to hire that guy back. And the defendant is horrendous too.

Wasn't sure the defendant was going to enter the courtroom, it was taking forever 😂😂😂😂

My husband is an auto body painter at a very nice shop.
$1, 000 doesn’t even cover one side of the car…if you want a real nice paint job you have to drop some money.

Earl Scheib $49.99 . They paint right over the dirt and grime .

I think the plaintiff should've gotten some, but not all of the money for the new paint job as well. It sounded like the paint only needed to be stripped because of the defendant's poor work, so I think the cost associate with stripping the paint should be on the defendant.

Bad Ruling! Plaintiff should've been awarded the amount it cost to strip the paint bc there are now two layers of bad paint that had to be removed as a result of the defendant.

There's a product for fisheyes called Smoothie, but once you use it, you have to use it every time you spray the paint on the project

[RacieRain]

The defendant is flat out ridiculous. Sam is definitely a con.

[myalways]

This was the funniest episode to date for me! 😂

[Charlene-fisr]

They both seem likeable, and unintentionally funny lol.
Fair decision!

[jennifer_mertens]

Just because you pay a lower fee than normal, doesn't mean botched work is acceptable. I've often paid much lower than the going rate for services and have gotten wonderful results. Charging below the going rate shouldn't excuse poor workmanship. Even the Defendant said they could have "done it better if he paid for it"... He already PAID for it.

[trudypops]

I get where the defendant is coming from. You get what you pay for. $1, 000 can only do so much. Perfect example of you get what you pay for. However the defendant probably should have just stuck to their price of what it would have cost to do a decent job versus taking the money and doing a mediocre job... & then do it multiple times which probably ended up costing a full price job

[highlander]

You get what you pay for. He was low budget & got a low budget paint job🤷‍♀️
