Default Aircraft manufacturers and their reputations

Beech rarely drills holes in the wring place. But it does
happen and Beech starts a new piece, Cessna has an engineer
approve just putting a rivet in the hole.

Cessna uses a fair amount of "aerodynamic fairing compound"
[bondo]. If I could afford it, I'd have a Beechjet 400
withy clearcoat on the primer.
