^^ That's another fundamental issue, right? I just had that discussion with a friend this morning. I outlined some products for him to use (infrequent, apply by hand) and told him his vehicle would look better than 95% of the others on the road.
Using my admittedly-pie-in-the-sky math as an example, that means only 5% appreciate a great detail.
Along with the great comments above, I totally admire the ability to look at a vehicle, make fast and accurate decisions on what is needed to accomplish the tasks of improving it, and then efficiently make it happen so there is still profit in the job. Reading about and looking at some of the resident pros' work here I am constantly amazed. That combination of experience and talent - being able to catch the smallest detail while not losing touch of the overall goal - is impressive.
Honestly, it's also a tool for explaining things to my wife. "Hey sweetheart...come here for a sec. If you think I'm anal, read this post."
