What's wrong with it?
The four things that make
a refinish last.
Surface Prep & Etch
The finish bonds to a cleaned, de-glossed, acid-etched surface — not a dirty one. Skip it and the coating peels in a year.
The Right Coating System
A genuine multi-coat system — primer, build coats, topcoat — outlasts a cheap single spray by a decade.
Full Cure Time
The coating must harden to full strength before water touches it. Rushing it back is the fastest way to ruin the job.
A Written Warranty
Done right, a refinisher backs it on paper. A PBRA-Certified pro warranties the work — not a handshake.
