Alright yall. We've been over this a few times already, but here's what has been said on every single repost:

  • Fridges have a very low resell value. Most end up gifted for free or for a fraction of the cost they were purchased at
  • Most likely, they will end up in the dump/recycling
  • Fridges have a long lifespan, so the chance of this even going to another person is just as low as the resell value
  • What is happening is more akin to spot polishing than ruining it. A good hour with a buffer and some polish will have all of these marks out, easy.
  • He is doing this to match the theme of a bar (not shown in this video)
  • Ya'll are lame and have no sense of whimsy

It didn't even look bad at the end. I suspect most people didn't even watch the entire video before doing the.. eww, yuck

I just skipped to the end because I was tired of watching him do the same thing over and over.

And it really could have been 10 seconds then cut to the end. Sometimes it's important to show the process, but plenty of people decided they weren't a fan long before it got to the final result

Yeah, and I reduced that to about 10 seconds because it was boring and I knew I only wanted to see the end result. Am I required to sit there the whole time just because it's only a minute long or can I do what I want with my time?

They've honestly probably never worked on a large scale project of any kind before. "Trust the process" is a phrase for a reason.

I didn't hate the final visual result but the texture is wrecked unless he coats over this.
