In my 41 years in business, I was open Saturdays. Up until the 1990s, it was a full day. That was a time when cars broke down a lot! Eventually we settle on a half day for Saturdays, usually ending the day at 1pm to 2pm. Today it appears that most shops are not open on Saturdays, and many are considering a four-day work week. Some shops are open 4 days, while others are open 5 days, and rotate employees with a 4-day schedule of extended hours.

I've got this '02 Taurus that has aged unusually badly on the hood roof and trunk top, and if I can just get these parts addressed the car will look so much better. I'm not aiming for anything close to perfect.just trying to make these look better so your eye isn't drawn right to them. Rest of the body's paint isn't bad at all. Hopefully what I'm seeing here is just the clear coat failing and all it needs is a sanding, 2k clear applied, some high grit sanding, and buffing.
