Strictly my opinion here, but...

Are there detailing jobs that are worth $1,200? Absolutely!

Is this one? Hard to say. Based on the pics posted, I'd say no.

However, unless the owner is going to go the extra mile to take care of the car going forward and avoid the circumstances that led to its current condition, it's probably wasted money. If he doesn't, he can expect to be in the same position this time next year.

I'm not a fan of color sanding the paint on daily drivers. My daily driver sits outside, uncovered, all day long and probably about half of the nights. It needs all of the paint possible to fight off the elements. Plus, today's environmentally friendly paints are applied so thinly that it doesn't take much to burn through them.
