I have an account that is a used car dealer and the majority of his inventory is auction cars from lease turn ins. He deals in high end luxury cars and sells a ton of s class mercedes. I was called to his place this past week for a 04 SL500 that he bought from aucion. He said the car was bought dirt cheap because it was all scrathed and marred. He wanted to see what I could do with it before he resorted to the body shop for new paint. From a distance the car looked beyond hope. I said to myself how can anybody do this to such a nice car. It had about 22,000 miles on it. Upon further inspection The scratches didnt look deep and I could at best make it look alot better than it did with some wet sanding and polishing. I told him that I would need the car the entire day and let him know a price before hand. He agreed and I went to work. To make a long story short, The scratches werent scratches at all. They were marks left by somebody with a permanent marker at the auction (most likly a bidder) to simulate scratches. I was amazed on how whoever did this simulated marring with nothing more than a sharpie. I was happy and so was my customer.
