Some coating inquiries are a bad fit before the work starts. The paint needs
more correction than the budget allows. The customer expects defects to
disappear. The vehicle cannot stay long enough to cure. The maintenance plan
does not match how the vehicle will be used.
What is your line?
- Which expectations do you correct before giving a price?
- What condition requires an inspection instead of a phone quote?
- When do you offer a smaller service, and when do you decline the job?
- Do you put maintenance and cure expectations in writing?
This is not about judging the customer. It is about recognizing a job that
cannot end well at the price or under the conditions being requested.
