I had a few minor chips in the hood and had it at the dealer for a routine inspection. They too had a paint guy who came around on Tuesdays. I thought "cool", the dealer uses him, must be good.

The guy swirled the crap out of my paint where he made the "paint correction". Additionally, the chips looked like they were fixed by a kindergartner using finger paints. I did not pay for anything and when they offered to fix it, I said no and ended up doing it myself.

Take it to a decent body shop.
