Major Paint Defects On A 249 Mile 2020 Bentley Continental GT | Ceramic Coating | Black Paint

[@ChicagoAutoPros]

Customer had an issue with us showing his licences plates and we had to re upload. Video was doing so well, please watch and rewrite your same comments in, LOL!

[@ThePatrickBateman69]

No problem but to combat this in the future you should just take the license plate off before filming and put a “Chicago Auto Pros” one. That way you still “watermark” the video while protecting the customer’s privacy. Keep up the great work guys

[@aryanvaghasiya2342]

I think you guys should remove the Licence Plate before the video and then put it back afterwards, just like some other detailing channels 🤔. And BTW I love your work, a big fan from India.

[@bsautospa2957]

What was the verdict on the fuel door? Was it over spray, a repaint? Was it pitting from from water being in an air line? I polished an e55 Amg for a friend last spring that he knew had some repainted areas, and it was easy to tell what was resprayed by all the pitting. Another detailing classic! Thanks Chicago Auto Pros!

[@Justin-uf9lc]

For everyone saying this was Bentley’s doing, as in the manufacturing plant..that is highly, highly unlikely. This car was likely shipped in mint condition from the plant and one of two things happened: • the dealership detailers jacked this car up • the owner took it through a few car washes ....Or both lol

[@tabcreedence6553]

@@Kid_Ellipsis Would it be acceptable for someone who knows a lot about cars to buy a Bentley Continental GT? Would it still scream the same thing?

[@clarop1473]

I worked at high end dealership detailing(Bentley, Rolls Royce, Aston Martin, Lamborghini,McLaren) I can confirm they all come like this from the factory. Typically the dealership has us detail them before delivering to buyer.

[@joelyons886]

This had to be the dealership and sales guy cutting the corner. It amazes me that dealerships that sell high end don't simply invest in either onsite Detailers or outsource to a professional and reputable company. Selling a $200k+ car like that is simply indefensible. Even better looking back at this a 2nd time!

[@bden120]

I work in a Bentley Dealership bodyshop and can tell you some brand new cars come to us in pretty rough shape. Many factors in transport to the dealership, many time cars are damaged in transit or at the port that vehicle is unloaded at. Some have sand marks in the paint the factory never buffed out all the way. I have a customers 2020 Aston Martin in the shop that looks like a five year old car it's so dirty. Our detailers take the time to make the car right, i can't say what other dealers do.

[@ryanmatthew511]

@@bden120 We pay destination charges and dealer fees. That should include ANY necessary work to make sure the new car is....well... new!

[@TCUSB]

@@bden120 But the swirl marks, how do those get there? Purely speculation but I assumed it was caused from that car sitting in a lot or showroom for a while and then the detailers had cut corners during the washes.

[@deansankey7062]

I have a 2016 V8 Flying Spur and I agree that this car would not have left the factory in that condition, I have been round the Bentley Factory is Crewe and seen how much attention to detail they do for these vehicles before they leave the factory. This is definitely a dealership issue of cutting corders

[@_BAD_MERC_]

I got to be completely honest here, I've seen a lot of people detail cars but you have a passion that's beyond words. Words would simply diminish just how impressed I am with your effort and attention to the finest of details.

[@turbo3492]

Rest assured,the Bentley would not have left the factory in this condition.I had the honour to visit the factory,you would be amazed at how detailed their final inspection is,especially the paintwork.All this damage must have been done post delivery.

[@volundrfrey896]

It could have happened between the car leaving the factory and the end customer getting it. A lot of people will handle that car in between those stages particularly when it's sent between continents. I would guess that the dealership is responsible for a great deal of the damage. They're notorious for their poor handling of car paint.

[@crawforddetailing9221]

It's the dealerships

[@fortunekookie789]

I used to sell new high end cars like this and you would be BLOWN AWAY by the paint defects from the factory. The amount of time and money the dealership had to put into correcting the damages was unreal, sometime several thousand dollars a car.

[@williamthomastaggart5080]

Jason, great video and unbelievable what that paint looked liked. I hope you and your family (including Chicago Auto Pro family) are all healthy and safe.

[@datsuntoyy]

I've seen this kind of thing a few times. It is truly appauling how a dealer can sell a car $100k, 200, 300 or more with such bad paint. I saw pics from one guy who detailed a brand new Ferrari 599 that looked like it had been through the car wash 100 times and dried with an old shop rag. WHY! My '13 Audi S6 wasn't nearly that bad at 75K miles when I gave it it's first paint correction.

[@easyx9mm]

I have never seen Bentley Continental car with fade out paint, yet plenty of Honda’s. This should be identified doing pre delivery inspection. We call that a “Friday Car”.

[@gpaje]

Highly likely almost all those defects came after the factory, from shipping to sitting at the dealership.

You honestly think Bentley released this car from the production line in this state, I don't think so !, there's more to this than meets the eye, someone ain't telling the truth ?

[@TheUrbanEpicure]

Of course not. Probably got some damage during shipping, then at the dealership, then through the owner during these first 249 miles. This can happen if enough idiots are involved.

@@bigmac22ify ok

[@1957mrbill]

It may be necessary to strip the protective coverings when the car first arrives at the dealership. An inspection is typically done to cars when they first arrive before the delivery truck leaves. Any shipping damage found is documented with the driver there which gives proof the damage occurred during shipping and not at the dealership. I know this occurs with other makes of vehicles since my friend does inspections at a dealership, I just have no idea on how Bentley does it.

That spot on the door to the end of you looking it over is called tracking it's when there is moisture left on the car and your wrap it up for paint the bag will stick to the pannel and transfer on also where you were seeing the "metallic" look from in the video what I can tell is they did not have the correct coverage in that section just my opinion I paint at a Cadillac dealer and see all of this all the time

[@michaelrichards2024]

I would think dealerships would hire people pretty close to you guys to handle this stuff or at least do a one stage polish to make it a little bit better. I’ve worked at dealerships and they really don’t care about quality as long as the dirt is of the paint. You can scratch it and swirl it to hell. Most days we use one bucket of soap for 10+ cars.

Question for you - would there be cases like this in which you would refuse to do the work out of fear of blame (like you mention at about 6:30 mark - you touched it last). I have no doubt you guys would accept responsibility for any mistakes you made, but are there cases that are too risky to take?

[@HoofHearted2DAY]

That edge marking looks like it would be from the protection wraps n adhesive - I often come across it on the Audi’s we prep for sale, particularly the RS3s round the black window trims. Bentleys, Lambos, Maseratis etc always require a bit of work fresh off the boat where I work in regards to paint correction. My foreman had to educate me bout it coz I always thought they came perfect from the factory. I recently only just started doing Maserati ‘exotics’ while I’m learning still bout correction etc but the more experienced Detailers get the bigger stuff. One thing I noticed is a lot of Dealer detailers don’t give a shit coz it’s just a paycheck to them & the format being a numbers game to the bosses, they don’t really care bout the issues customers are unlikely to pick up on. Most of the people where I work do care, so we notice it when we have to fix other’s fkups from external dealerships if a ‘dealer swap’ car etc.
