Ask where he gets them. I could really use them for cleaning under the razor blade sharp front license plate frame on Cadillacs, and under the seats of Suburban/Tahoe/Yukons-lots of sharp edges there, too.

Check out this place
I got a pair of the Power Flex Plus Kevlar gloves for working out at the airport after having my hand cut open on a broken hinge on somebody's bag. It takes alot to cut these suckers open! Trust me, the shop I bought them from brought in two pairs, one for me and one to try to hack apart with my freshly shapened pocket knife.

I find alot of Marijuana Roaches, baggies, etc. in my wholesale detailing. Always worry about getting pulled and searched. Lots of times, I will dump all that out before I leave the dealer, just in case.

Looks like might have been torn off. I'd say it was a healthy size too! And I complain about the washer eating socks.

So far, Detailbarn is winning!
My story? I'm very married! I did a 'personal favor' detail for a girl that I know, professionally. Woulda been $225 - I charged her $100, and she knew that coming in. She's more than hot, but 20 years younger...
Pair of black thongs in glove box with a small card, smilie face, and 'Thanks Jim!'

jimamary-I found a very tiny black lace thong in an SL500 that belongs to a customer's mother (I'd say she is around 60 so I highly doubt they belong to her) after he and his girlfriend went to the mother's house to pick up the car and bring it to his house, where I was going to detail it. His mom lives about 5 minutes away but the round trip took almost an hour.
