Instances of failure seem to be greatly reduced from the beginning. But again, it comes down to guys in a rush trying to make money. Being flat rate you only get paid book time. This pays 12.5 hours, which is tight when considering you need to clean and reseal all surfaces. You also don't know what condition the car coming in is going to be in. It could be a greasy mess and require tons of extra cleanup. There is a reason techs don't last, they either suck, they have a conscious, or they can't make time. The guys that do last are usually pretty damn good.
Excellent post.

Yes My rebuild was 30 hours. Everything done not only right but better than right. Painstaking attention to detail.
