when you do(or search for) cheap bodywork, whatever it fastest is what is going to happen. it's cheaper and faster to scuff and shoot rather than take the paint and primer off down to the surface. can have decent results too, if you're skilled enough. it will usually last longer than the owner has the car as well, so they don't care.

My whole car is like that, it was in a hail storm so it looked like a golf ball. we did Slick sand high build pimer, block sanded and then 3 coats of regular primer and block sanded the whole car again. Still found 4 more dents after paint
